We had to let people register as coming to the event first and made one generic activity time block included with their admission item. I tried to use Session Groups and it looked terrible on the registration screen when you brought it in since it can't be formatted nicely.
We sent a Session Ranking Survey for the generic activity/session to the registrants that said yes they could attend. It included 6 questions with all of the same topics listed on each question and let them pick which ones were their top 6 choices.
Once we had all of the responses, we had to move the people to their preferred sessions/times manually for each unique activity/session to make sure we had capacity per room/time.
I hope this makes sense. I believe we had two surveys included for free in our license package. One for an individual session feedback/ranking and another for the entire event's feedback.

Subject: Need ranked question in event registration
We have a number of events where we need registrants to make a ranked selection in registration (for example - pick 4 activities you'd like, in order, from a a list of 10). We could do this in classic, but the ranked choice reg question has been MIA since the introduction of flex.
Has anyone found a solution? We tried a matrix question, but that doesn't prevent them from picking all as a first choice. Session groups don't work as they require times and dates to be attached; and simply using 4 choice questions (1st, 2nd, etc) has the same issue as matrix questions.
I welcome any ideas.
Cheers,
Sorry - to add as I am now confused, as ranked questions are NOT available in registration.
