Notes and references

  1. 1.0 1.1 Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (video game)
  2. In the Half-Blood Prince video game for Nintendo DS, Carl tells Harry Potter "I'm taking my N.E.W.T. Potions this term," indicating that he was a sixth or seventh year at that point, and thus Sorted in 1990 or 1991, as the game is set during the 1996–1997 term.
