In general, there is nothing wrong with different spacing on different pages. After all, there might be more markings and text between any given pair of staves on one page than there is on another, and it wouldn't make sense to have extra space on all pages. MuseScore automatically adds extra space only where needed, just like a professional music engraver would.

That said, you definitely have a lot of places where you've put more stuff between the staves than would normally be recommended, causing MuseScore to need to allocate more space than most people would want. So the thing to do is not do things like those weirdly customized slurs that are requiring so much extra space r those accent marks that were dragged way out of position to be very far below the staff. To fix those errors, best to do Ctrl+A to select all, then Ctrl+R to reset everything. You might then find some of your manual adjustments do need to be redone, but most of the ones I see appear to be completely unnecessary and are the cause of your problems.
