i think potion subject same like chemistry but it quite differ in the type of things that they used. for example, chemistry used the element like sodiom, copper but potion used the herbals and animals part of body.

how's about you??

I reckon she probably based some of Potions on Chemistry.


I loved chemistry, sadly haha.

I think it's a lot like chemistry, except that chemistry had more to it. It's like the lab part of chemistry, but not the lecture part.

I hated the lab part, but I enjoyed the math part. Math is used in potions, but not extensively. Also, the lecture wasn't just about math. It was about Atoms, the periodic table of elements, famous scientists, etc.

i'm enjoy the organic chemistry than the physical chemistry..
because it's to much math and explanation..

not like organic just remember the chemical reactions and compounds..
feels like i want to go back to school study chem..
i'm miss chem so much..

I think chemistry is very similar to potions. Instead of culdrons you have your bunsen burners.

yeah i agree that it is like chemistry. they measure out ingredients, figure out their compositions, structures and reactions if mixed with another substance.
