"It has the potential to be a subject for students who struggle with magic, almost like an escape but not just a glorified nap time." -- This is a very interesting viewpoint! I'd never thought about how some people might simply be bad at magic in the same way someone can be bad at sports.

"A camera. Seeing the creatures in their natural habitat would be amazing and having evidence would be awesome." Haha, almost everyone chooses a weapon of some sort but you just want to collect and share knowledge!

"I think I'd get fed up having to constantly adapt to change over and over again. I think I'd become rather grumpy with it all and stop enjoying the present cause I'd just be waiting for the next big change." -- Very practical and self-aware of you.

"I firmly believe that a consequence is not required for punishment, the knowledge of what consequences could be and the failure to do anything about that, are to me, just as important to punish and reprimand." -- From this, I gather that you believe people should have principles and stick by them even if nothing bad necessarily happens.

"If I used the counter-spell they would become puppies looking for cuddles instead." -- Baha, adorbs!

"I'm currently unable to attend because my medical problems have had me signed off as medically unfit and I desperately want to be back there finishing my degree" -- For most people, being happy and healthy is a goal in and of itself but for you, there's a point to it. Why be healthy if you can't take advantage of it to do what you really want?

"I think it is important to strive for things. I grew up without a lot of money and with only one person in my family ever having gone to university." -- I think many people believe ambition is about changing the world or making a ton of money or becoming famous but it isn't true. Ambition is at its core about reaching for the things you want and need. This is a perfect example of it.

"I'm not very good at asking for or accepting help because I'm that determined I can do it for myself and that I don't need anyone's help, or that I don't want to bother them oooor that I don't want them to see me when weak." AND "I find it hard to accept that sometimes there is no answer to something. I'm 21 and I'm still that 'yeah but why?!' person" tells me that while you care about people, it isn't super important to you to fit in with them snug and tight and not kick up waves. I know exactly what you mean about being the "yeah but why?!" person and being independent to a fault.

For so many of your answers I thought Hufflepuff, particularly your answer about honesty, but there's something different here to me. I don't think I've ever come across such a mix of Slytherpuff traits but at the end of the day, your fierce intelligence, craving for both knowledge and ways to use it and personal ambition push me towards Slytherin!
