"JKR: "Sometimes invention gives out. I was writing the latest chapter
of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince and I needed to come up with
another name for another potion. I sat for ten minutes at the keyboard
then I just typed "X". I thought, "I'll go back and fill that in later.""

Okay, not quite a proof, but the phrase "another name for another
potion" suggests that several are described in the HBP book. The
likeliest explanation to that is that Harry manages to continue
studying potions."


DuffyPoo:
Not necessarily, although I am quite certain HP will continue with potions.  The Trio made Polyjuice Potion outside of class, although Hermione, at least, had heard about it in class.  This could be as simple as that.  Hermione continues to take the classes, even though HP and RW do not, and she tells them about a potion that can do something or other to further their cause.
