How do I View Past Answers of Approved Members for Facebook Group Entry Question?
Okay, so this is the most popular question I get asked. And unfortunately, You CAN’T view past answers of approved members for Facebook Group Entry questions.
Why?

There have been many requests for Facebook to store these and allow group owners to view past answers for every group member, but Facebook hasn’t done it and I don’t believe they ever will.
