Ernie is known for his organisation. His organisation skills are infamous.
When asked why he puts himself under so much pressure, he tells people the truth because he doesn't like to lie. He says that he just likes being organised and having the comforting knowledge that he knows what he needs to know. Also, because studying is one of the only things that Ernie can control in his life.
Every day after class, Ernie takes the time to rewrite his notes over and over again until there's not one smudge of ink on it and everyone can read what he's written. In the dorms, his books are arranged by subject, then sorted into alphabetical orders. His little black notebook is his constant, and he doesn't go any where without it.
During the OWL exams, Ernie is the one who led to Hannah's breakdown. He had been boasting about how he's in a relaxing routine with studying eight to ten hours a day. Nine is his average. When he finally sits the exams, he has the comfort of knowing that he tried the best he could and that he couldn't have done any better than he would now.
Ernie's proud to say that he passes his OWLs with flying colours.
