Personally I did New Kingdom Egypt until Amenhotep III. Disliked it and wrote 7 pages.
Hatshepsut was good: 10 pages.
Wars of expansion 264-133 was excellent: 15 pages.
And filled up the lines for the core.

I didn't count the number of pages, but I'm pretty sure I got about 6-7 in each of them. Filled up the lines in Pompeii and Herculaneum.

I did:
Sparta: about 7 pages (didn't really count)
Greek world (500-440 BCE): 6 pages
Pericles: about 7-8 pages
The Delian league question was interesting, it was, "to what extent did the Delian League fulfil it's aims?" (or similar)

P&H: Filled it up.
Hatshepsut: 5 I think.
Persia during Darius and Xerxes: Perhaps 5 again.
Greek world 500-440: 6 or 7.

Not much compared to everyone else, but it's the most I've ever written in a history exam... yay!

You must remember the size of people's handwriting differs.
