Doing Some Swings
The first quarter of the academic calendar, with each quarter taking around seven weeks, was entirely done with academics alongside the introduction and tour in the first week. During that time, we digested the lessons by writing notes, which we had to apply to written exams.
In the second quarter, the time for the practical lessons had begun, where the students were required to perform empirically, thereby, we had to show off our actual skills. So, personally, I was a bit excited about it.
Some of the new lessons were etiquette classes, alchemy classes, magical classes, and physical education. Those classes definitely needed some practical skills, but more on the physical aspect.
