Analyze form results in Excel

Each question in your form is a column and each response becomes a row in the Excel workbook. The first four columns display the start time and completion times for each response, and the name and email address for each responder. The subsequent columns display that responder's selections.

Notes: 

• Any changes you make to the form data in Excel won’t modify the content of the response table.
• Names and email addresses of anonymous students won’t be displayed if you allow your form to accept anonymous responses.

Click the Details link to see more details for each question. On the details view, you can see the name of each responder and his or her answers for each question.

Tip: Click the column headers to sort the response results.
