appear if the exam is designed to display information about whether the

the next question in the exam. |

This button can be used to navigate

This button is used to submit your final
answer to a question within an exam. Once you click this button, you will
not be able to change your answer unless you are allowed to retake the exam.
If the exam is designed to display information about whether the question
was answered right or wrong, that information will be displayed upon clicking
this button. Otherwise, the next question within the exam will be presented. |
| Retry Button |
|
This button may appear after submitting your
answer to a question in the following cases: First, if you attempt to submit
a response without entering any answer information, and the question requires
an explicit response. Second, if you submit an incorrect answer, and the
question requires a correct answer, or allows for multiple tries for you to
submit a correct answer. In either case, clicking this button will clear out
any previous answer information you have specified, and allow you to attempt
the question again. |
