Unlike the O.W.L.s, the W.O.M.B.A.T.s consist exclusively of written papers. Therefore W.O.M.B.A.T.s could be sat by Muggles as well as wizards, although the Wizarding Examinations Authority does not believe that any Muggle would have the degree of inner- knowledge required to achieve a pass.
The Grade 1 W.O.M.B.A.T. tests the candidate on everyday wizarding laws, domestic spells, magical transport and magical plants and creatures; Grade 2, magical beings and objects, wizarding current affairs, and the Muggle world. The Grade 3 W.O.M.B.A.T. will test you on Magical History; the bodies and laws of the International Wizarding Community; Magical Theory, and Dark Magic.
The Grade 3 W.O.M.B.A.T. is the final examination, and the most difficult. Not only is the subject matter much more advanced, but the examination is also more stringently marked. Certain answers will LOSE YOU MARKS, so choose carefully... This is still not a straightforward Harry Potter trivia test. While a thorough knowledge of the books is essential to achieving a good grade at all levels of W.O.M.B.A.T., you will need inspiration as well as information, applying what you know, whether by deducing the correct answer or by making intelligent guesses.
If you would like to sit the Grade 3 W.O.M.B.AT, you will need 35 minutes.
It will take a few days for the Ministry to mark your test, after which the delivery owl will reveal your result in the form of a printed certificate. And so, for the final time... good luck.
