Default My IF in Excel formula is not returning the correct value.

I am doing a reference of 1, 2, or 3 returning specific text based on the
number. Here is my formula.

=IF(G29=1,"DOES NOT MEET",IF(G29=2,"CONSISTENTLY MEETS",IF(G29=3,"EXCEEDS")))

if the ratings are all 3's the correct text value will appear. If you vary
the ratings I receive a false value. Can anyone help me.

Hi Steph,

I'm not sure to have well understood, but try this:

=IF(G29=1,"DOES NOT MEET",IF(G29=2,"CONSISTENTLY
MEETS",IF(G29=3,"EXCEEDS","")))

Hope I helped you.

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Ciao

I tried your formula, and get (what seems to be) the correct result if G29
is either 1, 2, or 3.

If G29 is any other value, I get FALSE because the formula doesn't provide
for a result in that case.

If you change the formula to provide for other values
=IF(G29=1,"DOES NOT MEET",
IF(G29=2,"CONSISTENTLY MEETS",IF(G29=3,"EXCEEDS","other")))
it should become clear what's going on.

Default My IF in Excel formula is not returning the correct value.

Thank you Paul that helped some what. I am still having a problem. Picture
a performance review with a row of 1,2,3 as the points for each cell. At the
end the points are all added up and an overall rating is calculated 1,2, or
3. If I key in all 1 the value = does not meet, however if I populate the
fields 1, 2, or 3 randomly the value is false or blank with what you
proposed. But I was thinking it should not matter what get's me to the cell
that I am referencing as long as it equals 1,2,3. Your thoughts?

Steph, not sure what you are doing, I can put =A1+A2+A3 in cell G29, or
something else and as long as the formula comes up with 1,2,or 3 the message
is displayed. As Bearacade asked what is in cell G29, and maybe how it is
formatted, could be showing 1,2,or 3 but the answer may be something like
2.1?

Steph, you can't have that formula in G29, it would be a circular reference,
the cell reference refers the formula's results, you would need to have the
formula in another cell and the total points formula in G29, what formula
are you using to get the total points from the numbers 1,2,3,2,1?

So what cell is the formula in?
And what cell is the formula for total points in? and what is that formula?

Maybe the CSV file below would help.
