    Question Median formula with multiple conditions

    I am frustrated with several formulas today:

    1) I am trying to get a median number of J based on specific criteria from 2 columns (E and I in the attached file)
    {=MEDIAN(IF('2013'!I:I="Hospice",IF('2013'!E:E="Private",'2013'!J:J),0))}

    It is returning 0 when I should get 9.50 - I have tried several variations of formulas to do this including:

    =IF(AND('2013'!I:I="Hospice",'2013'!E:E="Private"),MEDIAN('2013'!J:J),0) as well as several others that I have lost during the process

    And I am getting either 0 or the NUM error

    2) I am also trying to get the median number of J based on when E=private but I does not equal hospice and cannot figure that one out in any way, shape or form

    3) I am also working on the average of the same items
    I have =AVERAGEIF('2013'!E:E,"*Private*",'2013'!J:J) to get the average of Private (includes Hospice) (comes to 11)
    and =AVERAGEIFS('2013'!J:J,'2013'!E:E,"*Private*",'2013'!I:I,"*Hospice*") to get the average of Private with Hospice (comes to 12.6)
    but I would like the Private number to be the average of the Private without the Hospice, and I have done circles with that one too, I keep ending up with a negative number

    Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated

    Hi Carol,

    Use array Formulas (I'm sure you know how to commit them):
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Re: Median formula with multiple conditions

    To deal with "nothing found" situation you could use either (as you suggested):
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    or my suggestion would be rather:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Of course array formulas, and shown here only for average, but the same approach would work for median
