*And so begins the weirdest story of cheating ever. Harry totally has an unfair advantage in that everyone else is using the wrong instructions, yet he’s still following instructions, so what’s the problem? Basically the problem is more in the plotline than what Harry is doing.
*ETA: I hope this never causes trouble in Harry's career as an auror!
Of course not. You see, what happened is that Snape left everything in his will to "Lily's son." So, Harry inherited Snape's D.A.D.A. schoolbook, which totally had such incredibly detailed (and funny) instructions scrawled in the margins that Harry had only to follow them to shoot to the top of the Auror Department in a few years, despite having no N.E.W.T.s or special training courses.
