1. Using the 'Edit Your Response' Link: After submitting the form, you'll often see an 'Edit your response' link. Clicking it takes you back to your submission.

2. 'See Previous Responses' Link: If the form owner allows it, you may see a link to 'See previous responses'. This lets you view your own and others' submissions, but edits are usually not permitted.

3. Checking Your Email: Some forms send a copy of your response to your email. This provides a permanent record and a way to verify your answers.

Creator How to Check Submitted Google Forms as the Form Owner

As the form owner, you have several ways to view the submitted responses:

1. Responses Tab in Google Forms: In Google Forms, navigate to your form and click the 'Responses' tab. Here, you can see a summary, individual responses, and question-by-question analysis.

2. Email Notifications: If you've set up email notifications, check your inbox for a summary of each submission. Click 'View Summary' in the email.

3. Connect to Google Sheets: Connect your Google Form to a Google Sheet for more advanced analysis. You can then export the data to Excel and create pivot tables.

Google Forms offers a user-friendly way to gather and analyze data, but knowing how to manage your responses is equally important.
