Set enum values as selected in Razor dropdown - asp.net-mvc-3

Question

I am using a razor view for showing the scored of an examination and it contains an enum value that holds 3 values "pass","Fail","absent" and i want to choose it accordingly. The model i used is
model
public class VerifyResultModel
{
[Display(Name = "StudnetId")]
public int StudentId { get; set; }
[Display(Name = "Student")]
[Required]
public string Student { get; set; }
[Display(Name = "Mark")]
[Required]
public int Mark { get; set; }
[Display(Name = "Score")]
[Required]
public string Score { get; set; }
[Display(Name = "Result")]
public App.EnumValues.ExamResultStatus Result { get; set; }
}
Controller
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Verify(int Id)
{
List<VerifyResultModel> model_result = new List<VerifyResultModel>();
VerifyResultModel _resultItem;
foreach (exammark item in marks)
{
SchoolApp.EnumValues.ExamResultStatus result = SchoolApp.EnumValues.ExamResultStatus.Absent;
if(item.Mark >= MinMark)
{
result= SchoolApp.EnumValues.ExamResultStatus.Pass;
}
else
{
result = App.EnumValues.ExamResultStatus.Fail;
}
_resultItem = new VerifyResultModel { StudentId = (int)item.StudentId, Student = item.studentmaster.StudentName, Mark = (int)item.Mark, Score = item.Mark.ToString(), Result = result };
model_result.Add(_resultItem);
}
LoadResultsDropdown();
return View(model_result);
}
private void LoadResultsDropdown()
{
var types = (from App.EnumValues.ExamResultStatus type in Enum.GetValues(typeof(SchoolApp.EnumValues.ExamResultStatus))
select new { Id = type.ToString(), Name = type.ToString() }).ToList();
ViewBag.ResultList = new SelectList(types, "Id", "Name");
}
View
#model IList<SchoolApp.ViewModels.VerifyResultModel>
<tbody>
#for (int item = 0; item < Model.Count(); item++)
{
<tr>
<td>
#Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => Model[item].Student)
</td>
<td>
#Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => Model[item].Mark)
</td>*#
<td>
#Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => Model[item].Score)
</td>
<td>
#Html.DropDownListFor(model => model[item].Result, (SelectList)ViewBag.ResultList) //Here All values are showing as Pass ( first item in dropdown)
</td>
</tr>
}
</tbody>
The problem is even if i pass values Fail / Absent to enum it shows as Pass in combobox . How can i show the correct value ?

Can you please try this:
private void LoadResultsDropdown()
{
var types = (from App.EnumValues.ExamResultStatus type in Enum.GetValues(typeof(SchoolApp.EnumValues.ExamResultStatus))
select new { Id = type.ToString(), Name = type.ToString() }).ToList();
var types=Enum.GetValues(typeof(ExamResultStatus)).Cast<ExamResultStatus>();
var EnumData= types.Select(c => new { c.Key, c.Value });
ViewBag.ResultList = new SelectList(types.AsEnumerable(), "key", "value");
}
Hope this helps..
