<p>What are the best 9th grade boys Dorm's at andover?? And is it better to have a larger or smaller dorm???</p>
<p>From what I’ve heard, liking a large or small dorm is all personal opinion. I’ve heard people say that it’s good to have a large dorm in your first year(s), because you get to meet alot of new people very quickly. When you are older, they say it’s nice to have a smaller dorm, because you can live quietly with your best friends that you have already made. Doing this is called (sorry if I use the word in the wrong context) a “stack”. Basically, when you are an upperclassman, you and about 6-7 of your friends can request to live in a small house that was converted to a dorm. I’m pretty sure there further away from the main area of campus, but I’ve heard there really nice. You should ask TomTheCat, he will have more information.</p>
<p>EDIT:
You may already know this, but you can’t really choose when you are coming in as a junior. All the upperclassmen take the best dorm rooms/dorms (like 3-room doubles).</p>
<p>EDIT (2):
I HIGHLY suggest that you read through the ENTIRE thread:

I do remember asking a question about dorms on the thread above and TomTheCat did (and always does) an amazing job of answering all of my questions. Good luck at Andover!</p>
<p>Thank you so much! really helped :D</p>
