Retain UILabel value between random views

I'm making a view based quiz app for the iPhone where the player is going randomly between three different views when answering the questions. They get +1 when answering correct and -1 when tapping the wrong answer. But after answering the question, when you go to the new random view, I need the UILabel to show the score from the previous view. How do I do that?

Here is my code:

ViewController.h

@interface ViewController : UIViewController {

    IBOutlet UILabel *labelQuestion;
IBOutlet UILabel *labelAnswer1;
IBOutlet UILabel *labelAnswer2;
IBOutlet UILabel *labelAnswer3;
IBOutlet UILabel *labelScore;

int score;

} 

@property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UILabel *labelScore;
@property (nonatomic) int score;


ViewController.m

@synthesize labelScore;
@synthesize score;

-(IBAction)CorrectAnswer; {

    score = score +1;
    labelScore.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%i", score];

}

-(IBAction)WrongAnswer; {

    score = score -1;
    labelScore.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%i", score];

}

Make the variable score global i.e. define this in your AppDelegate and you can access it throughout your application.

As they're properties, when you create the next view you can set the label's text to the current view's text and the score to the current view's.

the quickest but dirty way is to store it in app delegate.. and if you want it to persist between app launches, store it in user defaults.. but as i said this is dirty..
