Here here!  Or even between lessons, finding a nice seculded spot, even back in her dorm room, and taking a nap or two.  And if she over sleeps, well she has the Time Turner.

I can understand WHY she couldn't use it for her homework though.  She'd be in her dorm doing it.  And you aren't allowed to see your past self, right?  So it's a no go.

Doesn't mean she still couldn't have used it between classes, or right after all of the classes were done, time turn back a few hours hide, do her home work.

Course, what might have been really getting to her is the Food thing, but then, the house elves are rather nice...

Seems to me Hermione just wasn't thinking.
