I tried to keep mine short, but could have made them longer. I say that around 20 pages per topic allows for large diagrams, images and good detail per dot point with a reasonable font size. I'm very picky about the structure and set-out of my notes, so they had to be rather neat.

Yes, chem was 30 pages and covered all pracs and research but with some pracs it was just an explanantiony thingy, and with others I have all the prac except the discussion.
Fair enough.

In Year 11 I didn't do a single bit of study/homework for any subject except maths (received a few N awards lol) but I still managed to get a 95-100% average in assessments from cramming. However, after seeing how much work everyone in this thread is doing I thought I might make some notes too, it can't hurt can it? :p

I've made notes for the first dot point in Chem and so far it's 10 pages so would probably end up being about 50 pages for the first module.

Well, firstly you're either incredibly smart, extremely lucky, have a great short-term memory retention, or your school marks very easily and with lenience.

Secondly, you're typing up notes, not a textbook. I personally think that notes are intended to be well detailed, but kept very short and sweet - I think 20-25 pages per module is more than sufficient to explain things with diagrams of notable size, and still typed in a regular sized font.

Mine are handwritten, they would probably be around 20 pages if typed in 12pt font.

That would also depend on the intelligence of your cohort. Some people are naturally smart others work for their IQ. 40% of IQ is from environmental factors I know this because I did molecular biology and genetics =).
