Fans have puzzled over this issue for years. J.K. Rowling admits that she's not good at mathematics, so there are some inconsistencies.
There are about 40 named students in Harry's year, which, assuming his year is typical, would suggest that there are about 280 students in Hogwarts. However, a Quidditch match in the third book mentions that there are 200 Slytherins in the stands, which would make the overall student population something like 800.
Rowling once said there were 1,000 students, but admitted in a later interview that that number made no sense and amended it to 600.
