Want to know what aspects of your product the respondents like best? List them and let your respondents rank the items themselves. In this case you can also set this up with a combination of a ranking question and formulas.

Ranking can also be used as a quiz question. Ask your participants to rank the presidents of the United States, the top athletes of the Olympic Games, etc.

2. When you have enabled the score feature, you can now input any number you want to be given as the score when answers are correct and when they are wrong.
3. Add here a Question explanation which will be shown at the end of the quiz when respondents are given the option to View correct answers.

• Image Choice is used when you ask a multiple choice question and present the possible answers to your respondent by using images or GIFs. Photos in your questionnaire allow you to connect with your audience on a more emotional level and it’s proven that people often respond better to a picture. 
• Rating questions are question types that ask a respondent to rate a product or service. There a lot of different formats you can use, like Star, Emoji, or Smiley ranking. This question type is used to get a clear view of how well you're doing, or how much someone likes your product, service, or business.  

• Text Only allows you to add a screen or slide with only text (and a media file) in your questionnaire. It will add interaction and personality to your questionnaire because instead of only asking for information, you have the opportunity to give information as well. It helps to create a dialogue and make your questionnaire feel interactive.
