Scratch

I can't tell for sure what exactly is wrong because I am on mobile right now, and I cannot open it in Scratch, but do you have it where it broadcasts the answer that is typed? It should look something like this.

Ask (Physical or Chemical) and wait
broadcast (answer)

When I receive (answer block goes here)
if answer equals (Chemical)
        broadcast(Chemical)
if answer equals (Physical)
        broadcast (Physical)

Then, you need two sprites called Physical and Chemical. They are both set to hide by default. Then you need on each one something like this

When I receive (Physical)
show
(Score keeping code here)

And for chemical you need something like

When I receive (Chemical)
show
(Score keeping code here)

I know this probably does not work exactly like I put it, but that is the best I can do off the top of my head. I hope this is what you needed, and hopefully tomorrow, I can write this code in, and get an accurate code.

Hi Chad,

Thanks for your thoughtful response, but the issue is that I'm using two lists and a loop-index variable checks to see if the answer given is the same as the one indexed for the question. It works when they just go down the list but I try to randomize it the second time it gets all messed up.

I don't really have much experience is lists. Let me try it out in the online editor, and then maybe I will have a better idea of your problem.
