    Formula to read grade, competition score, and place 1st-5th to show winers name.

    On The attached form I would like to have a formula that will read the scores in Column H on Sheet 2 and then show the names of 1st-5th place by grade in Columns K and L on sheet 2. All information caries over from sheet 1 and sums the Speech Score on Sheet 2 Column H. I was trying to combine an index and Countif formula, but have had issues. Can any one help?

    Thank you Martin,
    When one of the scores is a tie with the same grade one of the names will not show. Do you know another way? Maybe a countif and index? Thanks for your help.

    Thank you Jean,
    The only problem with your formula is that it does not seperate the grade. The table you put your formula will only be 9th graders. I think a countif formula would work, but I'm having problems getting it to work. What would you think?

    If tied it leaves second place blank, maybe an Array will help? Thanks for the help Martin.

    Hi Martin,
    In your attachment the rank will not change if the score changes. I changed 9th Grade Amy to only have 2 points and she remained in first place. Any ideas?
