Pre-test issue (Lessons must be completed in order)

OliverDeakin-41​: Here's a workaround, though it depends on the capabilities of the LMS.

• Publish two separate courses: one with the pre-test, and one with the content and final test.
• In the LMS, bundle the two courses into one curriculum (or whatever your LMS calls a collection of courses that go together). 
• Set the curriculum to require passing only one of the courses.

That would allow completion for users who take and pass the pre-test, who fail the pre-test and pass the final, and who skip the pre-test and pass the final. 

Here's one more option, though I usually don't share it anymore: use SL blocks for the quizzing. The course starts with a quiz in an SL block. If they pass, the user can advance to a lesson with a completion SL block. If they fail, they have to proceed to the content, and they're eventually steered to the completion-block lesson.

Unfortunately, after I first published that workaround more than 3 years ago, a major caveat arose: If a user fails the pretest, exits the course before proceeding to the content, and then relaunches the course, the Storyline block will reset. In other words, the user would be able to retake the pretest. So you'd have to consider that as a potential compliance risk.
