I have a large workbook that calculates scores based off referencing a hidden tab (so every cell has a =IF formula that references the hidden tab). I'm trying to get a numerical average of those cells that return numbers but everything I've tried counts the IF Formula into the equation and I end up with a really small or really large number (300 cells being counted when i really only want average of 25).
CUMULATIVE PASS RATE
=IF('DATA SHEET'!A2:A302="","",IF(AND('DATA SHEET'!B2="",'DATA SHEET'!C2=""),"",IF('DATA SHEET'!B2>=76,'DATA SHEET'!B2,IF(AND('DATA SHEET'!B2="",'DATA SHEET'!C2>=76),'DATA SHEET'!C2,'DATA SHEET'!B2))))
=IF('DATA SHEET'!A2:A302="","",IF(AND('DATA SHEET'!B3="",'DATA SHEET'!C3=""),"",IF('DATA SHEET'!B3>=76,'DATA SHEET'!B3,IF(AND('DATA SHEET'!B3="",'DATA SHEET'!C3>=76),'DATA SHEET'!C3,'DATA SHEET'!B3))))
=IF('DATA SHEET'!A2:A302="","",IF(AND('DATA SHEET'!B4="",'DATA SHEET'!C4=""),"",IF('DATA SHEET'!B4>=76,'DATA SHEET'!B4,IF(AND('DATA SHEET'!B4="",'DATA SHEET'!C4>=76),'DATA SHEET'!C4,'DATA SHEET'!B4))))
=IF('DATA SHEET'!A2:A302="","",IF(AND('DATA SHEET'!B5="",'DATA SHEET'!C5=""),"",IF('DATA SHEET'!B5>=76,'DATA SHEET'!B5,IF(AND('DATA SHEET'!B5="",'DATA SHEET'!C5>=76),'DATA SHEET'!C5,'DATA SHEET'!B5))))
=IF('DATA SHEET'!A2:A302="","",IF(AND('DATA SHEET'!B6="",'DATA SHEET'!C6=""),"",IF('DATA SHEET'!B6>=76,'DATA SHEET'!B6,IF(AND('DATA SHEET'!B6="",'DATA SHEET'!C6>=76),'DATA SHEET'!C6,'DATA SHEET'!B6))))
=IF('DATA SHEET'!A2:A302="","",IF(AND('DATA SHEET'!B7="",'DATA SHEET'!C7=""),"",IF('DATA SHEET'!B7>=76,'DATA SHEET'!B7,IF(AND('DATA SHEET'!B7="",'DATA SHEET'!C7>=76),'DATA SHEET'!C7,'DATA SHEET'!B7))))
I would like cell A1 (Cumulative Pass Rate) to average the scores that are transposed into the cells (A2:A7 above). I've tried AVERAGE(A2:A7) but I get a #N/A error. I tried AVERAGEIF but it keeps giving me exceedingly high or low results (not a % out of 100...it's almost always resulting 0.05% or 5000%). I'm not big on AGGREGATE so I'm not sure if it would work or not.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Not certain what you are trying, but the part of the formula: DATA SHEET'!A2:A302="" may be giving you a probem. It will only evaluate cell A2="" as TRUE or FALSE.
If this is what you want, you could probably use =Sum(A2:A7)/6.
