Predicted with what probability?

Comment author: JTHM 01 July 2013 08:07:29PM *  2 points [-]

80% probability that Hermione will make a horcrux; a mere 30% probability that everything will happen exactly as I specified above. It is a very specific prediction, after all.

...And a 90% probability that the plan will occur to Harry whether or not he pulls it off.
