I think: 
Harry survives.

Hermione lives.

Ron - good chance that he'll die, foreshadowed in the chess scene in 
PS/SS. Ron's sacrifice may set up the path for Harry to topple LV.

Dumbledore - lives. Good chance he'll become Minister of Magic, no 
reason to stay at Hogwart's if Harry doesn't need to be protected 
there any longer.

Hagrid - lives?, he'll have to be the liason between non-Wizards and 
Wizards in the revamped world. (although with all those Harry cares 
for *most* dying, he's a good candidate)

Neville Longbottom - lives; he rescues his parents from their induced 
insanity and gets to enjoy their company. (SILK GOWNS all the way) I 
will cry so hard if his parent's come back to sanity and then Neville 
is offed.
 
Snape - lives; He'll be the best DADA teacher ever, with Occlumency 
and Legilimency added to the curriculum. (Evil is always in the 
world, even when the Big Baddy is gong.)

Draco, Crabbe and Goyle - live; but may be not as evil as their 
parents

Fred & George - live; comic relief needs to be alive (end of GOF: 
we'll need something to laugh about...)
 
Bill, Charlie, Percy - live

Mrs. Weasley - I think she might die, she saw all the others dying 
but not herself. (Boggart)

Ginny - lives

Luna - lives

Mr. Weasley - lives

OOP members - ? I hope Lupin lives! and finds a cure for being a 
werewolf (can't Hermione find SOMETHING!!) Tonks, Kingsley, not sure, 
any of the others could go as sacrifices to the dark side.

I think a student or two more will have to die, but it might be 
members of the DA that we don't know as well; /except/ that the DE's 
saw only the trio, Neville, Ginny and Luna at the MOM, so they are in 
the gravest danger of being singled out for retaliation. SOOO, 
hmmm... maybe it WILL be one of these six. (I still say that Ron is 
the most likely.)

Dursleys - they live. Harry would like if they died, but it wouldn't 
be good for his character growth. 

my two cents!
