Since when was someone as supposedly clever, hard-working and studious as we're supposed to think Jamie is limited to learning only what's on the syllabus?
I saw this idiotic character snag coming from a mile away when Hermione started describing Jamie on the train in the first chapter of Exposed. Considering the repeated and numerous biology fails that Neil's had thus far, it shouldn't surprise me that his primary Sue, supposedly every bit as smart and intelligent as Hermione, would be unnecessarily ignorant on her body, even though she's SEVENTEEN YEARS OLD!
One of the many reasons I hated her character as soon as she was described, because I KNEW that Neil wouldn't be competent enough to pull such a character off.
Not because of the Hyperempath nonsense, mind you, but because every single goddamn character in this series shares the exact same mind, like the Delightful Children from Down the Lane(recurring villains from the old CN show Codename: Kids Next Door). Seriously, I'm convinced that these characters are all just part of the same alien hivemind that replaced the HP protagonists with these...things.
And what happens is exactly what you think happens. I remember it from when it was discussed on TVTropes, back when Hogwarts Exposed still had a page, and knew what was coming as soon as I saw the chapter title.

Oh man, those were the days. I missed that page.

because she suddenly died. The End.

Resurrected, you mean.
I'd be highly amused if they "reincarnated" Slytherin instead, and he turned out to be a really nice guy who proceeded to lay waste to the villains.
