    Horrible for me.

    I had to write the "desperate note" to the examiner :(
    Probably failed. The post mortem with friends killed me ..

    What did it say? I considered it loads of times but didn't :L

    Same though, and I'm a repeat too.

    Yep
    Q7b- part 1- Three quarters of the popn. OR 3 hairy: 1 hairless

    part 2- One quarter of the population OR 1 short : 3 long
    (3 long: 1 short acceptable)

    Part 3- 9:3:3:1

    A dihybrid cross got you this answer. The statement that the genes were "not linked" may have prompted people to do 2 separate monohybrid crosses in which case they would have still gotten parts 1 and 2, but might have had to guess part 3.

    Q7b was the trickiest question on it, while the test for Nitrogen in 2c might have thrown a few, but I thought that paper was good.

    Now go and enjoy yereselves and forget about it

    Excellent paper IMO, there were some parts I didn't know if you used your head and common "agricultural" sense they were easy to answer.

    Just a quick question. Can/is the refractometer method used to find the DM of a potato?

    No, refractometer only tells you sugar content.
