Default value in drop down list

Hello,

I am new to forms and I am playing around a bit now to get acquainted with the tool. 
What I have is a drop-down list, and depending on the chosen option I go to the next question or to the end of the form, so far so good. 

Now I want to make it more user friendly and set a default value in the dropdown list, this would save most users a click. 

So, the questions is, how do I set a default value in a drop down list in Microsoft Forms??

    JorisB78 you can't set a default value for the dropdown. A uservoice request for it has been raised which you can vote for https://microsoftforms.uservoice.com/forums/386451-welcome-to-microsoft-forms-suggestion-box/suggestions/38736022-default-value-should-be-able-to-set-in-hidden-fiel.
