[Harry Potter] Is Hagrid secretly a magical prodigy?

He never made it past 3rd year, and yet he was capable of human transfiguration, nonverbal magic, the *Incendio* spell, and the *Aguamenti* charm, all of which are NEWT level*. If he hadn’t been expelled, could he have become a Dumbledore-level wizard? 

\*Edit: All with a *broken wand.*

Most skills you learn in your teens are easier to pick up if you approach them later in life. Just try to learn algebra in your thirties-- it just makes a lot more sense. 


Hagrid is in his (sixties?) He's had decades to learn and pick up skills "along the way," even if it wasn't a part of his formal education.

But Dumbledore is like a superstar scientist with patents, publications and awards compared to someone who picks up GED level biology courses in middle age. He was normally talented, and had a lot of life to learn in.
