Yes it is, and I can't give it up. ;-)
 I happened to recall a rather distant memory of practicals from my 
university days (identifying the best locations for bleeding, proper 
use of leeches, etc)  and we generally had stations or series of 
tasks to perform at an exam level.  Most likely making a potion was  
only one part of the practical exam.  Even though that was the only 
part Harry thinks about and was probably the most important part.

Perhaps there were stations with ingredients to identify or perhaps 
they had to locate a bezoar (where do you suppose they keep the 
goats?)
