Dear Danielle,

I have a related question: Why are answers to matching questions randomized? I want the answers to always be in the same order. I entered answers labeled A through L, but they show up the drop-down list in various orders. That is extremely confusing and frustrating for students if each time they answer a question, they have to read through the entire list to find an answer, even if it's answer "A"! What is the reasoning behind this? 

Thank you!

If you don't want them in a randomized order, then use a multiple dropdown question instead of a matching question.
