Princess Sara:

  I think it's supposed to be Ron, not Harry, especially with the 
long thin nose and the reddish hair. Which would explain the lack of 
glasses.
  I'm also thinking that the "mystery student" behind Ron could be a 
Patil twin...or Dean Thomas. I'm thinking Patil girl because the 
face seems slightly feminine to me but I will admit that my first 
thought was Dean.
