Quick_Silver:
To defeat Voldemort Harry must arrive at an understanding of the true 
nature of the DADA curse and use that understanding to foil the 
curse. Defeat the curse, defeat Voldemort. 

Harry will be severely hurt retrieving one of the Horcruxs and during 
the time that he is injured Neville will polyjuice himself into Harry 
and try to defeat Voldemort resulting in the death of Neville. 

Draco will reveal the location of Nagini to Harry and will be 
grievously injured trying to capture her
only the arrival of Harry 
will save him. 

Harry's wand will be destroyed partway through the year
leading to a 
quest to find Fawkes and Ollivander. 

Voldemort will eventually attack Hogwarts to lure Harry into a duel

Harry will let the school fall to the force of Darkness and lure 
Voldemort to the Ministry.
