How can you use the percentile function with two conditions? I need to find let say the 90th percentile of test scores for Male students from the state of New York.

Click the italics "fx" icon to the left of the formula bar to open the Functions Arguments dialog. Help is displayed for each argument.
Assuming that Column A contains the gender, such as Male, Column B contains the state, such as New York, and Column C contains the test scores, try...

=PERCENTILE(IF(A1:A10="Male",IF(B1:B10="New York",IF(C1:C10<>"",C1:C10))),0.9)

...confirmed with CONTROL+SHIFT+ENTER, not just ENTER. Adjust the range accordingly.

Hope this helps!

Thanks Domenic! I was messing around with Sumproduct but couldn't get it work. This one is perfect!
