OWLs

In the runup to HBP I'm listening to Jim Dale's reading of OOP, and
I'm on the "OWLs" chapter.  As I listened I was thinking about the
question people have asked about how Percy could get 12 OWLs when
there aren't that many classes.

The passage that struck me was at the end of Harry's practical
DADA, and it says, "He felt sure he had just achieved an Outstanding
OWL."  What I'm wondering about is the word "just", as though acing
the practical exam = 1 OWL.  So is it possible that there are *two*
possible OWLs awarded per subject, one for the theory
(written) exam and one for the practical?
