It depends on what you mean by favorite - favorite to read about, or what would be my favorite if I was enrolled at Hogwarts? Defense Against the Dark Arts is the most interesting to read about, but what I'd like to do best is charms, since it has the broadest application without being a royal pain in the butt (such as potions - wait until you get to college and take chemistry and you are handed a test tube and told to figure out what is in it). History might be interesting (if Binns wasn't a literal dead bore), but wouldn't advance my actual skill at doing something useful and practical as a wizard. Note how little actual transfiguration is used outside the classroom, even though it looks like fun.

I think my favorite would be potions (cuz I really like the labs in chemistry) but DADA is right after it and then transfiguration

Care of Magical Creatures, I love animals and it always sounded like fun to me. Transfiguration always sounded like fun though to.

no doubt about it, DADA with the fake mad-eye cause learning the unforgivable curses would be bad@$$.

DADA under the impersonation of Mad Eye would be the best, Dark spells own Dark creatures.

I think, like most people, I chose DADA, and my teacher of choice would be Lupin..he was very good...that or Mad-eye
Spoiler:

even though it wasn't him...still, good teacher

For me, it is a tie between DADA and HoM. I voted for DADA, because I think that it looks like a lot of fun. I like things that test my skills for interesting real-life situations. I really enjoy history, too.

I'd probably rather have Defense Against The Dark Arts, taught by Lupin.

Charms in my favourite, and very useful. I also like DADA with Lupin and potions with Slughorn.

Second would be Transfiguration, and third Charms.

Everything sounds cool but ancient runes and arithmacy.

History of magic might have its dull points, but I tend to like history on a whole. Very Happy

I'll go with the popular DADA and potions. Wink
