- No: Students may not view the results of their assessment after completion.
- Yes: Students may view their assessment results after completion, including the list of answer choices with the student's selected answer highlighted.
- Yes with correct answers: Students may view their assessment results after completion, including the answer they selected and the correct answers.

Note: You can make changes to these settings at any time and they will apply to all assessment attempts–past, in progress, and future. For example, you want students to see the correct answers for an assessment, but only after all students in all your sections have completed the assessment. You set Allow students to view results after an attempt is submitted to No while students are submitting attempts. Then, after all students have submitted and you've graded everyone, you change the setting to Yes with correct answers. Students are now able to view the results of their assessment attempt with correct answers visible.
