Are the selections made saved in some sort of variable that can be referenced later?

For example:
1) Who was your instructor?
    -Bob

    -Karen

    -Ray

2) What was your favorite part about the instruction from @@Instructor? (Where @@Instructor is replaced with the selection from question one.)

And can also be used for branching as well.  For example:
1) Which Training Site did you use?

    -Los Angeles

   -San Francisco

2) Was your course a Formal Course or a Refresher?

    -Formal

    -Refresher

3) What did you like about your training?

4) What did you NOT like about your training?

 

(Condition: if @@Location is 'Los Angeles' AND @@Course is 'Formal')

5) Was the provided iPad helpful during training? (This question will only display if the conditions above are met.)

 

This is probably a bad example as I could achieve this just with branching and a reorder of the questions. In my actual case there are two sites, three crew positions, two course types, dozens of instructors at each site, 50+ courses, and Dozens of lessons per course.  Writing out the questions and figuring out branching generates a page of spaghetti.

Thanks.
