This Microsoft Excel IF AND LOOKUP FUNCTIONS exercise is provided to allow potential course delegates to assess their suitability for the Wise Owl ADVANCED EXCEL course only, and may not be reproduced in whole or in part in any format without the prior written consent of Wise Owl.

Exercise: Hundred Acre Wood - score ratings (Ifs)

A full answer to this exercise is provided as part of the training course!

1) Download the files needed to start this exercise: exercise-171.zip (and click here if you experience any problems unzipping this file after downloading it).
2) Create a new column giving each person a rating, according to their score:
  • If they scored 5 or less, show the rating as Novice
  • Otherwise, show the rating as Expert
3) Your final spreadsheet should look like this:
Exercise screen-shot 243 Eeyore has scored 4, for example, and so is a novice
4) Change Kanga's score to 7 to check your formula works (Kanga's rating should change automatically).
5) Save this as Scores Rated, then close it down.

Thank you for showing an interest in this Advanced Excel training course! As mentioned above, full answers to this and other exercises are provided on the course. On all Wise Owl scheduled courses delegates can take away these model answers (together with their own efforts!) on a free USB stick.
