A Degree in Sorcery (SI)

Description
When I woke up today, the last thing I expected was to be thrown fifty years into the past, ripped away from everything I'd ever known. Some would leap at the chance. Abusing your future knowledge to get rich sounds enticing, don't get me wrong, but me? I just wanted to go to university. Though I do suppose that Hogwarts is a pretty good alternative. Marauders Era. AU. SI-OC.

- ReindhartRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0This is my first time to review on royal road. Till the latest chapter, im enjoy it. The story, well for now you can imagine the daily life on HP world aka hogwart life so nothing stood out for now (like dramatic pew pew shot magic to enemy lol).
MC & other characters still take times to build, but the progress still good so far.
As for style, im enjoy the PoV from other character too as long it not too frequently.
For grammar, i can't review it as english is not my main language.
All in all, it's good and i'd recommend it to try read first. - TeramireRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0This story have every part done right. I only need one thing: MORE! Realistic, no stupid overpowered. MC have flaws and world looks real. Moreover we have little madnes as a background and it gives loot's of possibilities. Good job. Only what rub my eyes is that he doesn't make some plan to help with his family money problem.
- ThefurbRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Well thought out characters with hints at an interesting backstory make this a great start. The idea looks like the author is heading towards a fresh take on the unfleshed out HP characters in the past. As of ch 3 it is unclear as to if the canon is going to be tossed aside or not but it is enjoyable to see the author visit familiar places in the HP world while focusing on the new MC.
- KvazRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5The Author takes us a bit further in the past compared to most other HP fanfics. Which is a welcoming change for once. Its nice to see known characters of a different time than the standard HP books. Our Author takes time to flesh out the other characters a lot so far and the mc is well done as well. Grammar and Style are good too.
So I definitely recommend to give this a try. And I hope the quality stays this good. I can't wait to see where the story takes us to. And I will edit this Review once we are a bit further in the story. - Moist NuggetRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0There's honestly nothing wrong with this story, grammar is great from what I could see, the characters are also written well.
The only thing I could even complain about is that if you've gone deep enough into the HP fanfic fandom, you'd be able to tell that this is as basic as things can get. It's too early to tell if there'll be a unique spin to keep things fresh, but if you've never immersed yourself in the fandom then this is a fantastic starter novel.
tl;dr There's nothing currently written that hasn't been done to death in the 900k stories just on fanfiction net. Well written, maybe worth waiting for a huge stockpile of chapters before jumping in
