#168 If this then what? Using the IF Function in Excel

The IF function in Excel is a really useful one to be aware of as you can use it to help you to quickly analyse your data. In this example, I use the  IF function to get Excel to tell me if student grades are a pass or a fail. This is a very simple example to get you started, why don’t you have a play with the IF function with your data and see what you can get it to do?

  1. Great video – the IF function is a great tool to have in your back pocket. The big 3 (SUMIFS – COUNTIFS – AVERAGEIFS) as I like to call them will take you far with your spreadsheets.
