How to Create a Dropdown Question

 

The Dropdown question type provides multiple answers in a list that drop-opens when clicked. Unlike a typical multiple-choice question, a Dropdown question keeps the answers hidden in an expandable list. Thereby, it occupies less space on a screen.

 

For example, take a look at a Dropdown question below:

  4. You can further enable Branching, Grading, and make the question mandatory (Required question) for your quiz takers. Also, add an image to your Dropdown question if you want to and save.
