Take the OWLs Part 3
Harry Potter Hogwarts Mystery
Hello everyone, welcome to Part 3 of our Walkthrough for Take the O.W.L.s Adventure of Harry Potter Hogwarts Mystery. Last time, you convinced Andre to take his O.W.L.s more seriously since there is no guarantee his quidditch career will work out. You also prepared for both Charms and Transfiguration O.W.L.s. Later on, you took those O.W.Ls and now there are four others to go.
Now you can continue where you left off and head to the library to meet Tulip.
[Disclaimer: Walkthrough for this part has been updated in July 2022.]
When you arrive, you’ll be able to interact with some of the characters and see what they have to say.
Tulip will tell you that she actually called you to do something mischievous. You have two options to respond with. Both will lead to the same outcome with some minor dialogue differences, so pick whichever one you prefer.
After talking for a while, you’ll get to study Herbology with Tonks and Tulip. To complete this task, you need to earn at least one out of five stars within three hours. All five stars are needed to pass, so avoid starting this task if you are low on energy.
There are 5-cost actions tied to Tonks and Tulip. Prioritizing them should save you some energy.
When you are done, you’ll learn that Tulip is still undecided about her future career.
She’ll ask for your opinion. This choice won’t have any significant effect on the story, but if you want to be supportive, it is recommended to pick the first option.
Your next task involves taking Herbology O.W.L. However, there is a waiting period of three hours before you can proceed. Since you will likely be low on energy at this point, it is recommended to wait and let your energy recharge in the meantime.
Head to the classroom once the waiting time is over.
Upon arriving, you will notice the speech bubbles above some of your friends. Tap on those if you are curious to see what they have to say.
After talking to Tulip for a bit, your Herbology O.W.L. will begin.
Like before, you’ll have to do the written portion of the exam first. Below are all the questions and the answers to them.
After you’re done with those questions, the practical part of the exam will start.
First, you’ll have to water your Screechsnap. Tap and hold anywhere on the screen until the icon is inside the green zone. Then continuously tap and release to keep it in the green zone for 4 seconds.
Next, you’ll need to assess the needs of the Dittany. You can do so by completing the Focus mini-task.
After that, you’ll have to fertilize the Fanged Geranium. This is a relatively easy tracing task, which shouldn’t be much of a problem for you.
Then, you’ll have to repot a baby Mandrake. This tracing task is a bit harder than the previous one, so be careful while doing it. Avoid going too fast or you might risk failing.
This will conclude your Herbology O.W.L. Professor Tofty will ask if you’d consider becoming a Herbologist. If this is something you’d like for your character, be sure to tell him so.
Next, you should head to the Forbidden Forest to revise for Care of Magical Creatures.
Liz, Barnaby, and Charlie will join you for revising.
Sadly, Barnaby won’t be too confident he’ll do well in this O.W.L. You have three options to reply with. If you like Barnaby, it is recommended to pick the first option.
You can then ask him one exam question to test his knowledge. This is a good opportunity to learn the answer to one of the questions. All of those will be covered later on, so feel free to pick whichever one you want.
Shortly after, Professor Kettleburn will arrive and tell you he’s looking for his missing Bowtruckles.
Your next task involves helping the Professor find the Bowtruckle. To do that, you need to earn five stars within eight hours. All five stars are needed to pass.
There are 5-cost actions tied to Charlie and the roots. Focus on these actions if you want to save energy.
Once you’re done, Barnaby will find the missing Bowtruckle.
You’ll immediately recognize the creature.
If you named the Bowtruckle Barnaby Jr during Chapter 4 of Year 4, Barnaby will be incredibly happy about it.
You’ll be curious to know how he found the Bowtruckle.
Barnaby will explain it.
Professor Kettleburn will praise him for that, which will boost his confidence just enough for the upcoming exam.
Charlie will then ask if you’d consider becoming a Magizoologist. If this is a career you’d like to pursue with your character, be sure to pick the first option.
Now is the time for your next O.W.L. Proceed to the Care of Magical Creatures when you are ready.
Once you arrive, you’ll be able to interact with some of your classmates by tapping on their speech bubbles.
After talking with your friends for a bit, the O.W.L. will begin.
Like before, the first part is the written exam which will test your knowledge of various magical creatures. Below are all the questions and the answers to them.
Once you’re done with that, the practical exam will begin.
You’ll first be tasked with determining the needs of a Kneazle. This can be done by completing a Focus mini-task.
Next, you’ll need to demonstrate luring back an escaped Bowtruckle. This is a tracing mini-task that is reasonably easy, but try not to go too fast or you might fail.
After that, you’ll be tasked with feeding a Fire Crab. This is perhaps, one of the easiest tracing tasks, so you should be able to complete it without a problem.
And lastly, you’ll need to find proper food for a sick Unicorn. This is just another Focus mini-task, which at this point, you are quite familiar with.
And with that, your Care of Magical Creatures O.W.L. will end. Professor Tofty will ask if you have any interesting creature stories to share with him. You have three options to choose from. Each will lead to some unique lines of dialogue without affecting the adventure’s outcome, so feel free to select the one you prefer.

After talking to him for a while, you’ll receive your next task. Proceed to the library to revise History of Magic with Badeea.
When you arrive, you’ll notice the speech bubbles above some of the characters. Tap on those if you want to see what they have to say to you.
Badeea will thank you for agreeing to study with her.
She’ll tell you to ask her a question about the History of Magic. This is an opportunity to learn the answer to one of the exam questions, so pick whichever one you want.
Sadly, she won’t remember the answer to that question, but Ismelda will arrive and she’ll answer it correctly. This will come as quite a surprise to you.
Apparently, she likes history a lot.
You’ll find it odd since she’s usually sleeping during the History of Magic classes.
Ismelda will explain why that is the case.
She’ll then offer to help you with revising. If you completed Crushed Side Quest, you’ll get an additional line of dialogue.
Studying History of Magic requires earning five stars within three hours. All five stars are needed to pass. Because of that, it is not recommended to start this task if you are out of energy.
There is a 5-cost action tied to Ismelda. Prioritizing it should save you a bit of energy.
Once you are done, Ismelda will ask if you’d consider becoming a Magical Historian. If this career is something you’d want for your character, be sure to tell her that.
After that, she’ll warn you that someone’s been spying on you lately, so you might want to watch your back.
Shortly after that, Part 3 of Take the O.W.L.s adventure will end. Hit the Collect button to claim your reward.
There are only two more O.W.L.s to go. Will you manage to do them with good marks? What will your final scores look like? And who’s been spying on you this entire time? Find out in Part 4 of this exciting adventure!
Thank you for reading.
