Potions and Alchemy

Overview
This class is required for all first, second, and third year students. Lessons involve the brewing of different potions of various skill requirements, as well as learning the properties of ingredients to better understand their purpose in any given recipe. The alchemy portion of the class deals with the structure, alteration, and manipulation of solid matter (such as metals, minerals, rocks, and crystals). Many Potions Masters become teachers, but there is also an opportunity in magical pharmacies, potion-making companies, and consulting.
