There are two parts to the test, a practical portion, and the written
portion. I doubt Harry did too well on his written portion, except the
part on the polyjuice question. I don't know if both parts have the
same percentage toward the final grade, because in potions, being able
to make the potion seems far more important. So, the practical part of
the exam may weigh more toward the final grade.
