Tonight we managed an EMQ and four essays and still finished early!
I have not recorded the discussion of the EMQ, but the answer I have written is comprehensive.
Send me your version and I'll send mine.
Mode of inheritance.

For each question, choose the answer from the option list that best matches. Each option can be used once, more than once or not at all.
Comment.
You are expected to know a lot of basic genetics and it is hard to remember the details. A list to go over in the days before the exam makes sense. Use this one and add anything else you can think of – and let me know of your additions so I can add them to this list. Don’t add a load of rare syndromes – you will just end up confused. But add anything that you know has featured in the exam.
