    IF formula help on calculating a score

    Hi everyone,

    I need some help on a particular column on L (see attached test excel file).

    I've managed to get this far doing this but still need help on the last step.

    I'm trying to create a sheet of questions and using a tick box method to calculate whether they passed the question or not, which will give a score. however if the question if not applicable, i would tick the N/A box as shown in the document however this shouldn't penalize the score the overall score.

    for example, if theres 5 questions and only 4 of them apply which they all pass except 1 question that is non-applicable, the total score should still be 100% but as to rather 80%. can someone take a look at what exactly i did wrong or what is missing?

    is it my formula for the total SUM wrong? or the IF? this is what i'm unsure of..

    i hope someone can help me with this, thanks.

    thanks.

    Re: IF formula help on calculating a score

    This doesnt solve your problem but...

    You dont need SUM(L11/C11)*1 in K11, and you dont need the *1
    You can only SUM two or more numbers
    L11/C11 is one number, youre not SUMming it with anything else
    This should simply be L11/C11

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.

    Since your column G is linked to your tick boxes, use this in K11:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    or, replacing the L11 with the formula there:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Edit:
    On another look, I'm not sure which tick-box you want to check against. The formulae above assume it's the ones in column H. If it's the ones in column J instead, then replace $G$3:$G$10 above with $I$3:$I$10.

    I recently started a new job so am a bit busy and may not reply quickly. Sorry - it's not personal - I will reply eventually.
    If your problem is solved, please go to 'Thread Tools' above your first post and 'Mark this Thread as Solved'.
    If you use commas as your decimal separator (1,23 instead of 1.23) then please replace commas with semi-colons in your formulae.
    You don't need to give me rep if I helped, but a thank-you is nice.

    Percentage is

    =COUNTIF(G3:G10,TRUE)/COUNTIF(I3:I10,FALSE)

    Display as a percentage

    Change L3 to:

    =IF(AND(G3=TRUE,I3=FALSE),C3,0)

    copied down and K1 to:

    =L11/SUMIF(I:I,FALSE,C:C)
