Find Top 3 and Add Values to the Right

[mcnealfbm]

I have a very simple table. In it there are 4 rounds, I need to find the top 3 rounds (first deteremined by Rank, then by Points) When the top 3 of the 4 are picked, I need to add the points together. So in the example below, the top 3 are round 1 (Rank 1), round 4 (Rank 1) and round 2 (Rank #2 but it is the higher of the #2 rank). There could be a 1 in all four rounds or no 1's. The formula needs to populate in cell to the right of the table. So in this example the final score would be 291. 99+95+97.

Thanks!

Maybe this array formula (use Ctrl+Shift+Enter and not only Enter):

Interesting! What does Ctrl-Shift-Enter do to the formula other than the {} brackets?

Also the formula didn't quite work. If the rank were all #1 for all four rounds it adds all 4 numbers together and I need it to find the top 3 scores total. It determines the top 3 first by rank then value.

Thanks for the start though. I'm looking at it to see if I can modify it. I just didn't understand what the ctrl-shift-enter does for it.

Try this:
