Canon has it otherwise.

In chapter 7 of PoA, Ron and Harry leave Potions Class with 
Hermione.  They  are mystified as she disappears from behind 
them and reappears "hurrying up the stairs; one hand clutched 
her bag, the other seemed to be tucking something down the 
front of her robes." It can't be the next  period that's doubled, 
because it's lunch, for which Hermione says she's starving. Not 
surprising if her internal clock is a couple of hours off.

Of course this leaves us with a possible Flint. But perhaps 
Hermione is taking her elective class with the Ravenclaws and 
Hufflepuffs.
