That's what I've been thinking. I do not think that Harry did good
enough on the exam to take potions from Snape, and if all of a sudden
the rules change just for him, I'd be mad. However, the loophole I see
is if Snape does DADA and they get a new teacher to do potions (could
it be the half blood prince?) or DD does it himself. That way Harry
can study to be an Auror. OR.. Snape is potions, does not take Harry,
DD teaches Harry himself to make up for being stupid in book 5. OR..
how about Harry just training to be a DADA teacher instead.. I mean it
is the only subject he is good at really. 

Wish the book was out already,
