ScoreThis field is used to calculate the score and is hidden from the quiz taker - their score is sent to them via email. Can't show it on the screen after entering their email because I need them to click Submit to send the info to ActiveCampaign and trigger the email. That Submit button can only be on the last screen of of the quiz - they're not likely to click submit on a screen that shows their results. And we need them to enter their email before they are shown their score, or they're less likely to give us their email and that's the whole point of this quiz. :)
