STATISTICS & DECISION RULES · ORIGINAL EXERCISE
Three paths of readiness
Label B2 as "Master" at 90 or more, "Ready" at 75 or more, and "Practice" otherwise. Use IFS.
This quest practices IFS using a fictional business dataset. Read the sheet below, then enter the interactive quest to write and check your formula.
| Learner | Score | Tier | Delivery | Pickup |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ari | 84 | Gold | true | false |
| Bea | 71 | Silver | false | false |
| Cam | 92 | Gold | false | true |
| Dev | 84 | Gold | true | true |
| Em | 63 | Bronze | true | false |
| Fox | 77 | Silver | false | true |
| Gia | 88 | Gold | false | false |
| Hal | 84 | Gold | true | false |
Hints to get you started
- IFS reads test/result pairs in order.
- Test the highest threshold first.
- A final TRUE test provides the fallback.
Show the worked solution
=IFS(B2>=90,"Master",B2>=75,"Ready",TRUE,"Practice")IFS returns the result for the first true test. Put broader thresholds after narrower ones so they do not hide the higher category.
Make the skill stick
After solving the task, explain what each reference does and why the formula answers the business question. Try the workbook download inside the quest to practice in your own spreadsheet app.
