how long should results chapter be?

L

hey i'm doing my Phd in social sciences and am doing an ethnography. I'm writing up the results of the first of my two case studies, and was just wondering what the usual length of a results chapter is? i was thinking about 35K words in total? or is that too short...

Im social sciences as well. 10,000 is about the max length for any of my discussion chapters (I've 9 of them altogether, some of them are only 4,000. 35k sounds very long for one chapter!

L

sorry i wasnt very clear i meant in total for example my lit review is at 30k, (but is 3 chapters) my methodology is 10k ish, my results or findings im thinking should be about 35k ish (but has two chapters as 2 case studies) and my analysis and conclusions bout 20ish does that sound about normal?

thanks all, had chat with my supers and it's fine - because it is a case study style phd the results are in 2 parts (case study 1&2)thanks for all replies
