As a user, I want to be able to answer the blog question before seeing the ans since I might most likely change my mind about what my own answers are after seeing the one from the blogger, hence, saving the blogger the cost of gathering unrealistic or relatable data.
As a user, I suggest an anchor text right beneath the ‘Finish’ CTA button communicating to users that ‘All answers to questions above are provided after they’re been completed’.
This will give some other type of users that are directly in a hurry to see the answers to go through the question section first.
