Welcome.

I just started going to AA about 10 weeks ago..I go to 6 or 7 meetings per week.

I have been to about 15 or 20 different meetings and meetings with different formats (Big Book study, discussion, lead meetings, men only).

I have found some that I really like and keep going back to, I have found some where I went once and never went back, and their are some that I went to regularly and then stopped going because it was stagnant I wasn't getting anything out of it.

The meetings that are really bad to me are the ones where most of the people are there because they are court ordered. I get the most out of the meetings where the people are there because they want to be there.

I find variety is the key.
