I've been searching on how to ignore blank cells in this formula that "Finds the Most Frequently Occurring Text". When every cell is filled in, it works. In the attached screenshot where the #N/A is the intent is for it to be showing "OG" since that is the only text entered in this column.

=INDEX(Q10:Q1809,MODE(MATCH(Q10:Q1809,Q10:Q1809,0)))

Thank you in advance.
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Try this

=INDEX(Q10:Q1809,MATCH(MAX(COUNTIF(Q10:Q1809,Q10:Q1809)),COUNTIF(Q10:Q1809,Q10:Q1809),0))
