Help with this formula.
 

I am working with a bunch of qualitative data, such as Poor, Fair, Good, and
Exc. I am trying to give a value to each response and total up each person's
responses with a sum that I am hoping to draw conclusions for. Can someone
help me as to how to do this please?

Help with this formula.
 

Try something like:

=SUM(COUNTIF(A1:A21,"Poor")*1,COUNTIF(A1:A21,"Fair ")*4,COUNTIF(A1:A21,"good")*7,COUNTIF(A1:A21,"Exc" )*10)
