To answer KMF's question about having 10 questions in the file, replace this code:
maxscore = qList.length*10;
// randomly shuffle list of questions
qList.sort(function() { return random(3) - 1;});
questionNbr = 0;

with this code:
qList.sort(function() { return random(3) - 1;});
questionNbr = qList.length-5;
// determine maximum score
maxscore = (qList.length-questionNbr)*10;


To answer flemming's question:
on the "wrong" frame add a dynamic text field the the variable name of “right” then add another dynamic text box the the field name of choice. Then put some static text next to the boxes that reads “Your choice” next to the “choice” variable field, and “Correct Answer” next the “right” field.

Then you can also add fields that display what the correct and incorrect answer text was if you would like, with this code on the wrong frame:

if(choice=="a") {
wtext=answera;
}
if(choice=="b") {
wtext=answerb;
}
if(choice=="c") {
wtext=answerc;
}
if(choice=="d") {
wtext=answerd;
}
if(choice=="e") {
wtext=answere;
}
if(choice=="f") {
wtext=answerf;
}
if(right=="a") {
ctext=answera;
}
if(right=="b") {
ctext=answerb;
}
if(right=="c") {
ctext=answerc;
}
if(right=="d") {
ctext=answerd;
}
if(right=="e") {
ctext=answere;
}
if(right=="f") {
ctext=answerf;
}
stop();

Then add a field under the choice field with the variable name of “wtext”, and another field under the right field with the variable name of “ctext”.

As for the feedback option. You can do this by adding an extra tag into the XML file like so:

<question q='Who was the First President?'
ans_a='Ulysses S. Grant'
ans_b='Harry Truman'
ans_c='Abraham Lincoln'
ans_d='Albert Einstein'
ans_e='Barny Rubble'
ans_f='George Washington'
>>>>> ans_wrong='Incorrect Feedback would appear here if there was any.'
right='f'>

my choice for the tag was “ans_wrong” as shown above next to the arrows (be sure to remove these in the actual XML file). Then go to frame 2 of your FLA and enter this code under the last letter choice declaration.
feed = qList[questionNbr].ans_wrong;

Then add a another dynamic field on the wrong frame and give it the variable name of “feed”. Any questions, please feel free to ask.

How do you put a pause button to allow the user to see the feedback....I tried your code and it shows the feeback at lightning speed
