Unhappy Average given criteria, HELP!

Hi,

I am trying create a spreadsheet that will become a draft that I will use on a daily basis. Ive been trying for hours...

I would use this draft spreadsheet to copy pate a list of numbers and have 4 averages computed given 4 criterias

My criterias are quartiles: Bottom 25%, the next 25%, the next 25%, and the top 25%

And I would like the average of the numbers I will paste given these criterias.

What I did is compute the quartiles using the formula, then I tried to use the =sum.if formula and the =count.if to compute my average

The problem is, excel will not let me input a criteria in this format: "<H3" (H3 is where my lowest quartile is). Rather excel will only let me use this format for my criterias: "<30"... Which means I will manually type the formulas everytime I get my quartiles computed..

Im not sure if I was clear... Any tips?
