Computers: B Social Studies: B
ii. Math: C Science: B English: C PE: C Health: A
Computers: A Social Studies: B
iii. Math: A Science: C English: A PE: B Health: A
Computers: C Social Studies: C
iv. Math: A Science: A English: A PE: D Health: C
Computers: B Social Studies: C
6. Use an IF Function to create the Grade Values.
a. Use the NOTE: Grade Values to help you.
b. You will need to use a NESTED IF statement.
Condition: IF Current Grade = A, then 4.0, else IF Current Grade = B, then 3.0, else IF Current Grade = C, then 2.0, else IF Current Grade = D, then 1.0, else IF Current Grade = F, then 0.0, else 0.0
7. At cell B12, insert a formula that calculates the Total of all individual letter grade values found in the Grade Values Column.
8. In the cell next to MY GPA=, insert a formula/function that calculates the AVERAGE of all the individual Grade Values.
a. Make the value display 2 decimal places
9. Below the cell that calculates MY GPA, Insert an IF Statement for the following condition:
Condition: If a students GPA is greater than or equal to a 3.50, then have the cell display HONOR ROLL! If the students GPA is less than the 3.50, have the cell display, Keep Trying!
10. Use conditional formatting for the MY GPA result
