All you need to do is insert a scorable object, such as a clickbox, on the slide where you want the review to begin. When the student clicks the Review Quiz button at the end of a quiz, he or she will be taken to the slide containing the scorable object. The student will then be led through all slides that follow, not just the quiz slides.
Be sure to set your clickbox up as follows so that it does not actually do anything more than mark the quiz start point.
Show the Properties of the click box and, on the Reporting tab, select Include in Quiz. Ensure the Points are set to 0 so that the click box will not be added to the final quiz score.
On the Options tab, ensure that Show hand cursor over "hit" area is deselected so the student doesn't mouse over the area and wonder what it is.
Deselect Pause as well so the click box does not interfere with your current slide timing.
Lastly, on the Click Box tab, Disable Click Sound and set the On success to Continue (just in case your student happens to click on it by accident).
Several quiz settings must be selected for a quiz to be reviewable (via Quiz > Quiz Preferences). Be sure to select Allow User to review quiz, Show score at end of quiz and Allow backward movement. Deselect Show progress or the progress indicator will show up and be inaccurate due to our fake quiz click box.
One last item to note. Don't set the Quiz Required field to Answer all or your student will be forced to click the fake clickbox in order to proceed. Any of the other settings are just fine.

Lori – this is very helpful, Thanks! I have another impossible task that I hope you can help with. How do you setup a review feature to only review some of the quiz questions? I have both written questions (T/F and MC) and a hands-on part of the quiz with scored interactions. I want the student to only be able to review the written quiz questions. Is this possible?

Hi Ron,
First, make sure the written questions are sequentially after the T/F and the MC questions. Create a variable called InReview. OnEnter of the Quiz Results slide (slide properties) , Assign InReview 1
Create an advanced action that looks like:
If InReview is equal to 1
THEN
Jump to slide FirstWrittenQuestionSlide
ELSE
continue
End If
name the action checkReviewStatus
go to the FIRST quiz slide in the quiz and have the slide properties OnEnter, Execute Advanced Action, checkReviewStatus.
What *should* happen is that once the user clicks the Review Quiz button, it will jump to the first quiz slide which will then jump to the first written question. I have not tested it, but this process should work. The only problem is that the user may see a little blip while the program jumps.
Good Luck!
Lori

Hi Lori
Thanks for supplying such straightforward steps to follow, makes my life a lot easier! Unfortunately, whilst testing my first quiz video, I’ve found that sometimes the feedback messages or hotspots are not being shown unless you use the navigation buttons and click Back then Next. This happens when viewing the published video in an EXE or as HTML files in IE and Firefox. Any advice or suggestions would be great!
Thanks, Louise

On this topic, sort of, after being able to Review Quiz all throughout developing my project, suddenly this feature does not work. When I click the “Review Quiz” button I am taken back to the question slides but each slide is blank. Only the slide numbers/progress are showing. Then, on some slides, the title caption is present. I cannot figure out what I have done or changed. What I know for certain is that the review was working up until a day or two ago. Can you please help? Thank you in advance for your assistance.
