When I export a sheet in A3 size to svg, it comes in a super big size like 10 times A3 size, it didn't happen before with the older version. I always export my music in this format so I can make arrangements in Illustrator, but it's enormous and I need to do plenty things in order to get the page on the proper size. Can you help??

I suggest that you look at your default printer to see that the paper settings are. If it says auto, perhaps telling it to use A4 or Letter would get MuseScore to export it so it will fit on that paper.

This is because of the magnification that occurs internally in MuseScore, which is effectively a 5x zoom since v3.0. The main thing to understand is that the default, 100% size of an SVG is generally insignificant. It's "scalable" at its core. So zoom out in your viewing application, be it the browser or Inkscape or whatever. That will effectively solve your problem.
