Default Can I sort a list to match a previously existing order?

I have a list of numbers that corresponds to a list of data (for example, a
list of test grades by student name). Is it possible to sort a second list
of numbers (associated with the same data) to match the order of the first
list?

From what you've written, it sounds like a vLookup function will do the trick.
