Lectora V11 Limit Exam Attempts

In my title I have a final exam that I would like to set to only 3 attempts to pass. I have a questions bank of 68 questions that I have restricted to 25 randomly selected. Can this be accomplished with variables, and how would that work? I would rather do it this way because I would have to manually enter all the questions in to the LMS to have the functionality of limiting attempts. Would it perhaps be easier to forget about randomized questions?

    On the page BEFORE the test, set a variable to 1 for the first attempt. Make it a retained variable. On the first page of the test, check the variable. If greater than 3, stop however you want.





    Now, you should have a page after the test OUTSIDE the test chapter where you tell the person whether or not they passed. There add 1 to the variable. Show the Retry button ONLY if that variable is less than 4.
