Well, I'm a journo, so anywhere between 600 and 1000 words typed, depending on topic.

handwriting or typing? I guess about 5 or 6 sides of A4 as I do write fast. I can type quite fast but have never counted words.

I guess about 2 sides of A4 in 15 minutes, handwritten.

Well...handwriting I can do more or less two pages. But today for one of my lessons we had 15 minutes to analyse this advert and I wrote around 2 and a half? I suppose it all depends on whether I'm actually interested in what I'm writing about and that there's a lot to write about.

just about 2 pages hand written and without knowing the subject at hand until I begin to write.

A side and a half. Usually in exams I aim for 1 side every 10 mins, leave 5 to read over it and 5 to rest before starting the next question.

I had 3hr exams in Uni

3 sides of A4 if I write really quickly, but when I write "slowly" (still much quicker than others) my handwriting is very messy, so writing quicker makes it practically unreadable :P
