(nastily exhausting wizarding tests) level required for this job, taking into account predicted O.W.L. (ordinary wizarding levels) grades based on current performance.
The teacher may recommend subjects based on the student's current grades if the student is unsure of what job they would like. These students make provisional choices for N.E.W.T.s at this time and their choices are confirmed or rejected depending on their achieved O.W.L grades or the demand.
with that said, students will continue to take their required prerequisite classes.

sixth - seventh year
students don't know what their classes for sixth year will be until after they receive the results of their o.w.l.s. once they have their results, the students know whether they have achieved the required grades to get into the classes they're interested in for sixth year.
on the first day of term, each student meets with his or her head of house to determine which classes he or she can take. if the student did not pass an o.w.l., he or she discusses options with the head of house.
Students are required to a minimum of five (5) subjects that were recommended by their head of house during their fifth year. students may not elect to drop any classes at this time, as each class is crucial for the n.e.w.t.s that they will take at the end of their seventh year. students must also have at least two classes of field work (i.e. shadowing someone in their chosen career).
