Default How do I find the total number of the same number/letter in a

Maybe. I want to work out how many kids had grades 5c-7a for example. I have
all the information sent to me on excel - assessment grades are from 3c-7a (c
being lower than a) and effort grades are 1-4.
From a total of say 13 assessment grades, I want to work out how many are
above a certain boundary for each kid - really to see where problems may be
occurring, so I don't want a sum, just a total number above a certain value.

You mean where row 1 = 1 say, and row 2 = "A"?

=SUMPRODUCT(--(1:1=1),--(2:2="A"))

multiple criterias (see posting above), is it possible?

I am not trying to find the sum of numbers but want to evaluate how

many
number 1s, 2s etc that I have without having to count manually. Also

would
like to do the same with letters. Any suggestions would be much
appreciated.
