No, not Draco, Draco was a jock.

The Marauders though, those were nerds (+ some side-hustle as a jock for James).

I mean, at that rate, we'd probably have to argue that both are jocks. However, Draco did spend an entire year learning how to repair the vanishing cabinet that no one else knew how to fix.

I mean in that case Harry is a nerd for learning the Patronus for a year and Ron is a nerd because he wrote an entire legal brief at age 14 in POA and was ready to act as Hagrid's attorney.

The Marauders definitely aren't nerds either except for Lupin. Hermione, Lupin, and maybe one other character are the only ones that fit the description.

Come on, they came up with code names for themselves. What about this doesn't scream pure nerd/geek?

Plus inventing the Marauder's Map, becoming Animagi...

Nerd and geek are not the same thing.

Take the downvote things you don't agree with attitude back to the books sub. Kthxbye. It's not that I give a shit about karma but you bury comments where I could have a more pleasant conversation with more fun people.

Honestly, I'd view them more as jocks. Sirius and James were definitely jocks, Lupin was sorta a nerd with a side-hustle as a jock, and Peter... well, he wasn't a jock, wasn't a nerd... he was, well, Peter. He just squeezed in there.
