So, I have a form for doing data entry where there is a list of items which have three fields. The first two fields of each item are multiple-choice from five options, the third field is a simple comment text field. There could be up to 50 lines of items.
It is expected that the users of this data-entry form will be using it multiple times in one session, and could be considered experts. That is, this isn't an interface which will used by the general public.
This is what I have so far:

An alternative interface being considered is the following, where radio buttons are used instead of a drop-down select:
There will likely also be an upload/import function, separate from this data-entry form.
Any suggestions for better ways of doing this?
