McGonagall achievements are often underrated.
I think it was Thom Madura who wrote: "However - I always thought that
the
final battle would have shown a McGonagle that was a lot more powerful
that
we thought. Is it possible that McGonagle is like Hermione - extremely
well
versed in magic - but maybe not quite as powerful at it as some?"
McGonagall didn't have any trouble fighting the Carrows in Ravenclaw's
dorm.
She scoffed at the question, "Is that possible? [to hold the dark
lord
off]".
"I think so," said Professor McGonagall dryly, "we teachers are rather
good
at magic, you know. I am sure we will be able to hold him off for a
while..."
She wasn't folded by a hiding Snape. "McGonagall too seemed to become
aware
of their company. She halted, raised her wand ready to duel, and
said,
"Who's
there?" "It is I," said a low voice. From behind a suit of armor
stepped
Severus Snape."
When confronted by Snape: "Professor McGonagall moved faster than
Harry
could have believed. Her wand slashed through the air...", "a great
black
serpent that McGonagall blasted to smoke which re-formed and
solidified in
seconds to become a swarm of pursuing daggers.", "Snape was in full
flight... . He hurtled through a classroom door and, moments later, he
heard
McGonagall cry, "Coward! COWARD!""
and as the battle was to begin... "Professor McGonagall, who had taken
up a
position in the middle of the corridor and raised her wand" Planned
the
battle and with other took on the dark lord himself "Voldemort was now
dueling McGonagall, Slughorn, Kingsley all at once,"
What teacher have done more?
