Hermione is a really smart, talented witch. She learned all that she could before going to school. She was sorted into Gryffindor, though Terry Boot wonder why she wasn't a Ravenclaw. At Hogwarts, she shares a dorm with Parvati Patil and Lavender Brown.
She has a bit of a rough start in the beginning. She meets Ron and Harry on the train while looking for Trevor, Neville's toad. Harry and Ron a really seem to be extremely annoyed with her after having a few classes with her and other small interactions. Well, she was a bit annoying. I was re-reading Philosopher's/Sorcerer's Stone, and there was a line where Harry says that he was thankful that she was ignoring them, after the Fluffy incident, since she was a bossy know-it-all. This helpful bossiness made it hard for her to make friends, which Ron so nicely pointed out, causing her to run off crying. This lead to the Golden Trio birth. After the troll, the three became good friends, even though the boys still get annoyed with her. She helped them a lot in First Year. She set Snape's robes on fire, saved a dragon, and helped protect the Philosopher's/Sorcerer's Stone.
In second year, things weren't really any better, save the fact that she had friends now. Malfoy called her a mudblood and she faced some prejudice for being a muggleborn. She had a crush on Gilderoy Lockhart. She had brewed Polyjuice potion, which is really difficult, even for an adult wizard. The potion turned her into a cat...After she was petrified by the "great, dirty snake", she still managed to help the boys with her research.
