I still don't buy that Hermione was given the TT just so that she
can take extra classes. She was given permission to use it for her
classes but it gave her several months of training until she got to
use it for Dumbledore's intended purpose.<

How on earth did Dumbledore know that Hermione would need to use the
Time Turner by the end of the year? Wouldn't that mean he would also
know that Sirius was innocent and that Scabbers was Wormtail? It
doesn't make sense to me, and frankly, the whole story falls apart if
Dumbledore knew what was coming.

vmonte again:
That's the million dollar question! Strange how Harry, Hermione, and 
Ron just happen to be introduced to just the right gadgets, animals, 
and spells they need to save each other at the end of each book.
