After the tampering was discovered, many victims tried to sue Albus and the DOE for what they had done. Griselda with the new head of the DOE put a stop to that and the OWLs and NEWTs that were not approved by the headmaster were approved to Albus’ private fury. Albus was forced to approve the OWL and NEWT results or the DOE would make sure that he would take the blame entirely and deal with the lawsuits alone. The DOE made Albus suffer for what he had done. It had led that Lily was not seen as the brightest witch of her generation since she failed three OWLs. They found out that she failed potions, DADA and arithmancy. The NEWTs in those three classes were invalid and were removed in her NEWTs results in Lily’s anger. And there were the NEWTs result in the remaining classes. This was even worse. Lily had failed another two subjects in her NEWTs. It was transfiguration and ancient runes. Her mastery in charms still stood since she had an EE in her OWLs and an O in her NEWTs.
