I have a formula which looks at the average of a column based on 2 criteria:

Excel Formula:
=IFERROR(AVERAGEIF(Sheet1!$D:$D,$A4,INDEX(Sheet1!$A:$BR,0,MATCH(E$1,Sheet1!$A$1:$BR$1,0))))

which looks at 2 variables and then looks up the matching column and rows on another sheet to get the average.

I would like to instead get the Median because there are occasionally deviations that are so huge they throw the average off and make it useless.

I have the following formula working, but it's very very clunky:

Excel Formula:
=Median(Index(QUERY(Sheet1!$A:$BT,"select H, D where D = '"&$A4&"'",1),,1))

I'd like to either have a formula that works like the first one but pulls the median of the range, or have some way to remove the deviations that throw the average off.

How to create a cell-sized chart?
Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
Oh, You're correct. I'm using GoogleSheets. I tend to think they're interchangeable as far as the functions go but looks like this is one of those cases where it isn't.

In future when asking questions about anything other than Excel you need to make it clear in your title & such questions should be posted in the General Discussion & Other Applications section of the board.

I have done that for you this time.
