Excel Score Calculation - excel-formula

I have an excel worksheet with 3 columns that I use to keep track of what someone scores per-question on my exam, for example:
WEIGHT GRADE TEST
50 PASS Do the first thing right
25 PASS Do the second thing right
25 FAIL Do the third thing right
I want to automatically determine the SCORE by doing the following:
SCORE = SCORE + (if B2 == PASS then A2, else 0) + (if B3 == PASS then A3, else 0)
So in the case above the student would have gotten a score of 75% (50+25+0). I have many such tests with many students and I just want to paste in the GRADE column and get a final % result in cell C1.
How could I go about writing such a formula in excel?
Thanks,

Try this in C1
=SUM(IF(B$2:B$4="PASS",A$2:A$4,0))
Entered as Array Formula by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Enter.
I should look like this in the formula bar: (with curly braces)

Excel: Find the Position/Location of Each Occurrence of a Specific Word in a String in a Column

Using an MS Excel formula, I would like to find the Position(s)/Location of specific words found within a String of text located in a Range/Column of cells.
I'm using a formula that only identifies and finds the position(s) of a keyword by a single cell versus a column. I'm not able to repeat this action by looking throughout the column cells, using my numeric helper column (Cell D2:D12 "Occurrence") which provides the occurrence of the next position to be found.
Helper columns are welcomed if necessary to achieve the desired results.
The cells highlighted in "Red" is what I'm looking for as the final output results.
See below for formulas used for Column C and D. Text string is located in Column A2:A12.
COLUMN A
DATA TEXT
Dolly would not count her eggs but Count her apples
Tony drove a pickup truck to work
Over many nights he could not sleep
Only this and nothing more
She went by to pickup her son
To many times he would count over
They went shopping for Christmas
You can count him to pickup someone
They count so much they would sleep in his pickup
Nobody would play with Timmy
Trying to find the position location of each word
COLUMN B
Keyword List
Toe
Shoe
Count
Pumpkin
Pickup
Randy
Sally
Sleep
Jonathan
C2: =SUMPRODUCT((LEN($A$2:$A$12)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE((UPPER($A$2:$A$12)),UPPER(B2),"")))/LEN(B2))
D2&E2: =FILTER(B2:C10,C2:C10>0)
F2: =IF(E2="","",REPT(D2&"^",E2))
G2: =TEXTJOIN("",TRUE,F2:F4)
H2: =TRIM(MID(SUBSTITUTE($G$2,"^",REPT(" ",LEN($G$2))),(COUNTIF($H$1:H1,"<>&""")-1)*LEN($G$2)+1,LEN($G$2)))
I2: =IF(H2="","",IF(COUNTIF($H$2:H2,H2)>1,SUM(I1+1),1))
Try the below picture set up and formulas solution as in.
1] C2 "Total occurrence", formula copied down :
=SUMPRODUCT(LEN($A$2:$A$12)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(LOWER($A$2:$A$12),LOWER(B2),"")))/LEN(B2)
2] D2 "Count", formula copied across to F2"Sleep" and all copied down :
=SUMPRODUCT(LEN($A2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(LOWER($A2),LOWER(D$1),"")))/LEN(D$1)
3] G2 "Keywords" , formula copied down:
=LOOKUP(ROW(A1),SUMIF(OFFSET(C$1,,,ROW($1:$12),),"<>")+1,B$2:B$4)&""
4] H2 "Occurrence", formula copied down:
=IF(G2="","",COUNTIF(G$2:G2,G2))
5] I2 "Content Keyword Data Text", formula copied down:

=IF(G2="","",FIND("~",SUBSTITUTE(LOWER(I2),LOWER(G2),"~",COUNTIFS(G$2:G2,G2,I$2:I2,I2))))

Summing the result of nested IF statements in one cell

I've got a pretty complex conditional formula that works for each row of a column (sorry, no excel 2016 IFS) and I would like to get the sum of all instances in a range in one formula without having to make all the rows as a middle step.
Done this quite a bit with other stuff, but for some reason I'm stuck on this one.
The formula per cell is:
=IF((IF(IF(AND(ISNUMBER(Test_Samples!B2),Test_Samples!B2>0.1),Reference_Dataset!$H:$H,"")="N",Test_Samples!B2,0)<1),0,IF(IF(IF(AND(ISNUMBER(Test_Samples!B2),Test_Samples!B2>0.1),Reference_Dataset!$H:$H,"")="N",Test_Samples!B2,0)<2,1,IF(IF(IF(AND(ISNUMBER(Test_Samples!B2),Test_Samples!B2>0.1),Reference_Dataset!$H:$H,"")="N",Test_Samples!B2,0)<5,2,IF(IF(IF(AND(ISNUMBER(Test_Samples!B2),Test_Samples!B2>0.1),Reference_Dataset!$H:$H,"")="N",Test_Samples!B2,0)<13,3,IF(IF(IF(AND(ISNUMBER(Test_Samples!B2),Test_Samples!B2>0.1),Reference_Dataset!$H:$H,"")="N",Test_Samples!B2,0)<34,4,IF(IF(IF(AND(ISNUMBER(Test_Samples!B2),Test_Samples!B2>0.1),Reference_Dataset!$H:$H,"")="N",Test_Samples!B2,0)<91,5,IF(IF(IF(AND(ISNUMBER(Test_Samples!B2),Test_Samples!B2>0.1),Reference_Dataset!$H:$H,"")="N",Test_Samples!B2,0)<245,6,IF(IF(IF(AND(ISNUMBER(Test_Samples!B2),Test_Samples!B2>0.1),Reference_Dataset!$H:$H,"")="N",Test_Samples!B2,0)<666,7,))))))))
I would like to transform it to a formula that sums everything from the range B:B (or B2:B499) in one go.
I tried some SUM and SUMIF(S) stuff and changing B2 to B:B. That doesn't seem to work.
Oh, if someone has a tip to reduce the nested IF formula to something more readable, that's welcome as well. The idea of the formula is to transform counts to classes.
The datasets that are referred to look like this:
Test_Samples:
Reference_Dataset:
The If statements make up a classification as follows:
0= 0
1= 1
2= 2-4
3= 5-12
4= 13-33
5= 34-90
6= 91-244
7= 245-665
8= 666+
Here you see a count of 2 in "Test_samples", and it is labelled "N" in "Reference_dataset", so the result classifies it as "2" (to avoid confusion: if the count was 5 it would be labelled "3" according to the class criteria).
Say if there are 5 instances with result "2" in the range B2:B499, the sum should be 10.
Create a lookup table like this for your "result value < X" to summarize the If statements into a single lookup table:
Test_Samples B Value
0
1
2
5
13
34
91
245
666
In this example, i've put that on the same worksheet that the formula is placed, in cells A1:A10 (header in A1, so data values in A2:A10). Then you can simplify your formula and make it reference the range of your data like this:
=SUM(MATCH(IF(ISNUMBER(Test_Samples!$B$2:$B$499)*(Reference_Dataset!$H$2:$H$499="N"),Test_Samples!$B$2:$B$499,0),$A$2:$A$10)-1)
Note that this is an array formula and as such must be confirmed with CtrlShiftEnter (instead of just Enter).

Conditional Formula for excel

I am trying to do addition/subtraction from a total of one column, based on the value of a different column.
Here are the details:
Column H2:H61 has 3 possible values: Complete, Incomplete, Does Not exist.
Column I2:I61 are integers.
What I'm trying to accomplish is, for each Row in column H, evaluate if the value is "Complete". If it is, then, in a running total cell, convert the corresponding Row in I to a negative number and add it to the total. If it isn't, leave the number a positive number and add it to the total.
Example:
H2 = "Complete" I2 = 1.5
h3 = "Incomplete" I3 = 0.5
h4 = "Complete" I4 = 2.0
The total is 3
EDIT
Here is the full scope of it:
Excel Screenshot
So, the total values of I and L is currently 40.
What I'm trying to do is, for example, if H2 = "Complete", then I want to subtract I2 (which is 1.5), which would change the total value to 38.5.
H3 is "Does Not Exist" and != "Complete", so the total would still be 38.5.
H4 is "Complete", so the total would be 37.5
so on and so forth. Hope this helps clarify for everyone!
Try following formula in K2 cell then drag and down.
=SUMIF($H$2:$H2,"Complete",$I$2:$I2)-SUMIF($H$2:$H2,"Incomplete",$I$2:$I2)
I guess you want something like:
=40-SUMIF(H:H,"Completed",I:I)
assuming you do not have the 40 total in either Column H or I.
I figured it out.
What I did was in a separate cell I made the following formula:
=SUMIF(H2:H61,"Completed",I2:I61)
From there, I used that cell to create the following formula to get the result I wanted:
=P31 - (S30+S31)
The S30 and S31 cells are there because I was counting for each "completed" value in two separate columns.

I am trying to find a formula that will allow me to calculate MAX/MIN without calculating anything after the current row

I want to use the Max/Min function to calculate the minimum number up to the current row, but not count anything after that row. See example below:
A B C
1 10 =MIN(A1:A1) I Want B1 to only count MIN from A1 to A1 from here, then
2 14 =MIN(A1:A2) from here I want B2 to count MIN from A1 to A2,
3 9 =MIN(A1:A3) Then A1 to A3,
4 6 =MIN(A1:A4) etc,
5 14 =MIN(A1:A5) etc.
I could go back and update each row manually, but I have over 700 rows that I want all this to apply to. Is there anyone who can help me with a solution to this problem?
Use this formula in B1, and copy downwards:
=MIN($A$1:$A1)
This is called maintaining referential integrity while writing any excel formula. It should give the desired result on copy towards right or downwards.

List all items less than average

Suppose we have following data
prices
leptop 30
pc 29
table 10
house 15
car 25
train 32
pen 45
dog 33
cat 17
TV 8
I have calculated average of these prices avg==AVERAGE(D3:D12) where D3:D12 are price columns. Now I want to choose these items or list items which has price less than average for example, I know there is function if, but how can I use it together to list all data, which satisfies the if condition?
Are you trying to list the prices that are less than the average all in the same cell?
If you're just trying to indicate whether they are or not next to the column, you could use: =IF(D3 < AVERAGE($D$3:$D$12), "Less Than", "Greater or Equal")
Edit:

Ok, to get the result you want (see image) then you need to use the following formulas (this assumes these formulas are in column F).
The first row in the column should be: =IF(B3 < AVERAGE($B$3:$B$6), A3, "") where B3 is the data and A3 is the name.
And all the other rows should be: =IF(B4 < AVERAGE($B$3:$B$6), IF(F3="", A4, F3 & ", " & A4), F3) where B4 is the data and A4 is the name.
This is how you could do with with Advanced Filter. Set-up your excel sheet as follows, and enter the formulas appropriately:
Then, go to Advanced Filter:
You will get:
In E3 and copied down:
=IF(D3<AVERAGE(D$3:D$12),C3,"")
will give a list (admittedly with spaces) if the names are in ColumnC. (Guessing that 'continue' does not mean the same cell.)
Does a filter work for your needs? If I go to the "data" tab in Excel 2010, highlight the data, and click "Filter", I can filter on items "below average" in the price column.
