The worst part of being a Professor of Arithmancy was he was torn between sharing what he considered private information and finding one who was willing to help. Thankfully the new Charms 1-3 Professor had proven a quick mind in Arithmancy and very agreeable. How she ran a classroom, Jasper wondered, but she seemed to make it work. Thankfully Professor Ye had been quick to dismiss it as a big deal and even teasing him for being too evasive. As Professor Ye pointed out, Arithmancy and Prophecy was never an exact science. Jasper still had doubts on her opinion but was thankful for her quick note of her name and birthday assuring him now he owed her a birthday gift and a plant of any size would be satisfactory.
Shaking his head, Jasper looked up at his board where the constant reminder stood: "No Wands Out in this Classroom". The Syllabus was far less aggressive as it laid out the education plan for the year at each desk:

Making Predictions
There are many ways to make predictions using arithmancy. The Life Path Number is a particularly informative number that helps one tell the path their life will follow and the talents and abilities that will help you along this path.
Finding The Life Path Number
This is found using your full birth date:
Ex: 5/1/2017
Now add the sum of these numbers together.
Ex: 5+1+2+0+1+7=16
Now reduce to a single digit number:
Ex: 1+6=7
This is your life path number.
What does my Life Path Number mean?
Numbers have meaning. Your book explains the meaning of each number.
Are any numbers "better" than others?
Yes and no. Your life path number is more accurately your potential instead of a guaranteed future set in stone. However, 11/2 is considered a "Master Life Path". 22/4 is also considered "special". BUT, each path is unique and important. This is one's potential not exact future. There are plenty of 11/2s and 22/4s who have bad lives.
"Welcome to your third year of Arithmancy. I am Professor Marcs. Today we will explore making predictions using Arithmancy. Instead of boring you with introductions I thought it best to dive into the subject. Predictions in Arithmancy can be made using a Life Path Number. One of my fellow professors was kind enough to lend her birthday for this exercise," Jasper began.
"The Life Path Number is a tool in finding not only the path you are most likely to follow in life but also how your special talents and abilities may guide you down this path. First add the sum of all the numbers of your date of birth. Unless, you have an 11 or 22, further reduce the number to a single digit. This is your Life Path Number. Turn to page 387 in your text books to find a list of possible Life Path Numbers and their corresponding meanings."
"Elevens and Twenty-twos are also known as 11/2s and 22/4s are special in a way other Life Path numbers are often not seen as arithmancers and numerologists. 11/2 is considered a "Master Number" and 22/4 is considered in some degrees to be the same. Both are seen to be headed for a greater calling than most. However, there are plenty of 11/2s and 22/4s who fail to fulfill this destiny and other numbers such as 1s or 7s or any other number who achieve far greater. If you have any questions feel free to ask now. I will come around and check your calculations."
