Hermione wasn't in Ravenclaw because the Sorting Hat prioritizes choices and core values, and despite her immense intelligence, Hermione consistently chose bravery, loyalty, and friendship over pure intellect, valuing doing what's right (Gryffindor) over just knowing things (Ravenclaw).

George's twin brother, Fred Weasley, was killed when the Death Eaters attacked Hogwarts Castle, so George's life was likely significantly different after Voldemort's defeat.
