Marksheet Format In Excel Pdf Download
Вячеслав Бахтыгозин
I am a secondary school teacher and trying to create a master marksheet on excel which hold all the students data for my course. I would then like to create separate marksheets for each student which I will share with them. I would like to link the data from my master marksheet into their personalised marksheet. This means each student can only see their own marks, but I can enter them in once in one central place. This saves lots of time and the students have continually updated electronic markbooks.
I have managed to create these documents and the links between them but I can only get the links working in the opposite way. Therefore only be able to enter the marks in each students mark book and then they all feed back into my master. This is a lot more time consuming as I have to open each students mark book to enter in their marks for each test etc. I have tried to reverse the links but the students do not see the updated document.
Thank you very much for replying. I have attached two documents, one of the master marksheet where I would like to enter the data, the other is the student marksheet which I would like to share with the student. I would like this sheet to read from the master sheet but when sharing, not allow the student to change the data, only read it. I hope that makes sense.
@Scross2020 Thanks for sharing this. Now that I see what you've created, my idea might not be what you had in mind. The attached workbook takes your data, but in a different structure. A summary is created in a pivot table, which in itself is not very useful. But from the Summary, the pivot tables per Student are created very easily. Perhaps you'll find inspiration in it.
Thank you very much for trying anyway. The system I have created does work but I have to input the data into each students file rather than one file. I did try it this way but it wouldnt update for the student unless I opened the file and re-saved it. I just cant figure it out.
When you need to determine the relative position of a number in a list of numbers, the easiest way is to sort the numbers in ascending or descending order. If for some reason sorting is not possible, a Rank formula in Excel is the perfect tool to do the job.
In a sorted list, the rank of a certain number would be its position. The RANK function in Excel can determine the rank starting with the largest value (as if sorted in descending order) or the smallest value (as if sorted in ascending order).
RANK.EQ is an improved version of the RANK function, introduced in Excel 2010. It has the same syntax as RANK and works with the same logic: if several values are ranked equally, the highest rank is assigned to all such values. (EQ stands for "equal").
In Excel 2007 and lower versions, you should always use the RANK function. In Excel 2010, Excel 2013, and Excel 2016, you can go with either RANK or RANK.EQ. However, it'd be wise to use RANK.EQ because RANK can be discontinued at any moment.
Excel RANK.AVG functionRANK.AVG is another function to find rank in Excel that is available only in Excel 2010, Excel 2013, Excel 2016 and later.
The path to excellence, they say, is paved with practice. So, to better learn how to use RANK function in Excel, alone or in combination with other functions, let's work out solutions to a few real-life tasks.
As the result, the lowest value (fastest time) is ranked 1st and the largest value (slowest time) gets the lowest rank of 6. The equal times (B2 and B7) are given the same rank.
How to rank data in Excel uniquelyAs pointed out earlier, all of the Excel Rank functions return the same rank for items of equal value. If that's not want you want, use one of the following formulas to resolve tie-break situations and give a unique rank to each number.
How these formulas work
As you may have noticed, the only difference between the two formulas is the order argument of the RANK.EQ function: omitted to rank values descending, 1 to rank ascending.
For 2nd occurrences, COUNTIF returns 2. By subtracting 1 you increment the rank by 1 point, thus preventing duplicates. If there happen to be 3 occurrences of the same value, COUNTIF()-1 would add 2 to their ranking, and so on.
Alternative solution to break Excel RANK tiesAnother way to rank numbers in Excel uniquely is by adding up two COUNTIF functions:
As shown in the screenshot below, the tie-break is successfully resolved, and a unique rank is assigned to each student:
Ranking in Excel based on multiple criteriaThe previous example has demonstrated two working solutions for an Excel RANK tie break situation. However, it may seem unfair that equal numbers are ranked differently based solely on their position in the list. To improve your ranking, you may want to add one more criteria to be considered in case of a tie.
Because COUNTIFS works with the AND logic, i.e. counts only cells that meet all of the specified conditions, it returns 0 for Timothy since no other student with the same Math score has a higher total score. Hence, Timothy's rank returned by RANK.EQ is unchanged. For Julia, the COUNTIFS function returns 1 because one student with the same Math score has a higher total, so her rank number is incremented by 1. If one more student had the same Math score and a total score lower than that of Timothy and Julia, his/her rank would be incremented by 2, and so on.
Alternative solutions to rank numbers with multiple criteriaInstead of the RANK or RANK.EQ function, you could use COUNTIF to check the main criteria, and COUNTIFS or SUMPRODUCT to resolve a tie break:
The result of these formulas are exactly the same as shown above.
How to calculate percentile rank in ExcelIn statistics, a percentile (or centile) is the value below which a certain percentage of values in a given dataset falls. For example, if 70% of students are equal to or below your test score, your percentile rank is 70.
To get percentile rank in Excel, use the RANK or RANK.EQ function with a non-zero order argument to rank numbers from smallest to largest, and then divide the rank by the count of numbers. So, the generic Excel Percentile Rank formula goes as follows:
To have the results displayed correctly, be sure to set the Percentage format to the formula cells:
How to rank numbers in non-adjacent cellsIn situations when you need to rank non-contiguous cells, supply those cells directly in the ref argument of your Excel Rank formula in the form of a reference union, locking the references with the $ sign. For example:
If you need to rank multiple non-contiguous cells, the above formula may become too long. In this case, a more elegant solution would be defining a named range, and referencing that name in the formula:
=IFERROR(RANK(B2,range), "")
How to rank in Excel by groupWhen working with entries organized into some kind of data structure, data may belong to various groups, and you might want to rank numbers within each group individually. The Excel RANK function cannot resolve this challenge, so we are going to use a more complex SUMPRODUCT formula:
If the number is greater than 0, the first COUNTIF gets the total count of positive numbers in the data set, and the second COUNTIF finds out how many values are higher than that number. Then, you subtract the latter from the former, and get the desired rank. In this example, there are 5 positive values, 1 of which is greater than A2. So, you subtract 1 from 5, thus getting a rank of 4 for A2.
As the result, negative numbers are ranked as if they were positive numbers:
How to get N largest or smallest valuesIf you wish to get an actual N number of the largest or smallest values rather than their ranking, use the LARGE or SMALL function, respectively.
I would like to rank my students performance based on whether they passed English and 5 other subjects, and also their total scores. On the total scores, someone might have a higher value but they failed English, so I want excel to rank this one lower than someone who has a lower total value but they passed in English.
Hi! I don't have your data, however, I think you can use the example from the paragraph above for the two ranking criteria: Ranking in Excel based on multiple criteria.
If this does not help, explain the problem in detail.
Hi! I cannot determine the cause of the error because I cannot see your data. A third criterion can be added. Maybe this article will be helpful: #SPILL! error in Excel - what it means and how to fix.
Building a tool for tracking car racing over a season. Points are given to the first 10 places and everyone after 10th receives 0. Tie breaks are resolved by who has the most first places up to that point in the season. Then second. Then third. And so on until ties are resolved.
Your formula above for multiple criteria, RANK.EQ(Points to date)+COUNTIFS(Race #1 finishing place), works for breaking the tie of cars 11-20 for the first race of the season because every driver's result in that race would their overall rank. For subsequent races I can't figure out how to make that work.
There's a lot of parts so I'll try and break it down as succinctly as possible. The 22 drivers that competed are listed in rows 3-24. Races are in the columns with multiple data points for each race, e.g., Race 1 is columns D-M. Race 2 is columns N-X. And so on for 23 races.
Vital columns for this exercise are columns I and S (The points total up to that point in the season, and columns E and O, their finishing positions in those first two respective races. Columns J and T are intended to be the calculated season ranks for each driver after the corresponding race.
Scoring gives points to the top 10 finishers, decreasing from 25 points for first, and 1 point for 10th. Places 11 and higher receive zero points. Tie breaking rules give the top rank to the driver with the most finishes in the highest place.
When we get to the fourth place tie breaker for 20 points.... Neither driver has had a first, second or third place finish for the first three COUNTIFS statements. Driver #8 has had 1 fourth place and Driver #5 has had none. Driver #5 has +1 added to his 4th place rank to put him in 5th place.
