Okay, in a story I'm working on one of the characters is taking their classes to become a Hit Wizard. Also two other characters are taking classes to become Aurors. They would take the same classes right? By the way this is at hogwarts. I've checked the lexicon and my books, but that doesn't mean I'm right. So can anyone help me?
Karaley Dargen Edit: I think this fits better in the Reference Desk, so I've moved it.
Just so you know, there is a proper format for asking for plot help which can be found here.
Please edit your first post to include this as soon as possible, as mods can take away House points when this rule isn't followed.
According to the Lexicon which uses a JK Rowling written Daily Prophet as a source, a Hit Wizard needs five OWLS and has to be over 17 years of age. So, they don't actually have to be doing NEWTS.
He (or she, I presume you can be a Hit Witch) needs Charms and Defence at least. They differ from Aurors because they're more like regular police who catch criminals. Aurors are more akin to special agents sent to root out Dark Wizards.
Aurors need at least 5 NEWTS and they have to have DADA, Transfiguration, Herbology, Charms and, of course, Potions.
Your witch/wizard wouldn't necessarily be in all the same classes.

Okay, that makes total sense. So, although they would take some of the same classes they probably wouldn't all be the same. Thanks!
