To What extent equipment is uptodate Dropdownlist1(Excellent/good/Fair)
To what extent equipment is user friendly Dropdownlist2(Excellent/good/Fair)
To What extent were the practicals Realistic Dropdownlist2(Excellent/good/Fair)

for example in Dropdownlist1 if user select the Excellent means 1 value to be store in the database.
similarily, in Dropdownlist2 if user select the good means 2 value to be store in the database.
similarily, in Dropdownlist3 if user select the Fair means 3 value to be store in the database.

Solution 1

you can try and set value field of dropdown list via code or even you can set value from list item value property in design view only.

in code you can use

dropdownlist.selectedvalue to submit the value in the database.
