i have tried =countif(a1:a31,"=passmark") where passmark is a named cell. It
doesn't work... please help!

What exactly are you trying to do.
This works fine:
=countif(a1:a31,passmark)

Unless you are trying to also use an equation with passmark.

I have results in column A. I want to count the number of results that are
equal to or greater than a variable whose value is contained in a named cell
(named: passmark)
