    Percentile formula help

    Hello,
    I am trying to use formula to automate a scoring card. There are 4 categories each worth 25%. Each category has 5 ratings as below

    "Poor (0% score)"
    "Fair (10% - 50%)"
    Good (50% - 80%)
    "Excellent (80% - 100%)"
    "Outstanding (100% - 120%)"

    For example: If you manually enter a score of 120% in B5 I'd like the total score for that category to be 25% in B6

    let me know if this is not clear. Thanks

    Hi vlady,

    You'll need a small adjustment in your LOOKUP formula:

    Otherwise, any score below 10 will result in an error.

    Re: Percentile formula help

    Could you post an example worksheet with a few figures manually entered with explanation as to why those would be the results?

    Re: Percentile formula help

    you also need to clarify your boundaries
    Poor (0% score)"
    "Fair (10% - 50%)"
    Good (50% - 80%)
    "Excellent (80% - 100%)"
    "Outstanding (100% - 120%)"
    you cant have the same say 50% in both fair and good

    Re: Percentile formula help

    apologies, from your comments I realize I have not been clear at all. and assume people are thinking what I'm thinking....

    I'll attach another .xls for example.

    To note the top score is 25 but they can overachieve to 30.
