[Harry Potter] How big is the student body at Hogwarts?
gpt
Well there's 6 Gryffindor boys in Harrys year. If we assume that is standard, there's 12 Gryffindors per year, so 48 students per year. That's 336 students overall and makes sense with the number of named characters. But remember that we're seeing a generation of children born from the survivors of a war. There may usually be many more students, but too many young adults died, leaving an almost empty generation.
