I'm at my wits-end with this one. I think the solution is staring me in the face, but I just can't get it.

I have a cross table

a1 = 0 b1=65 c1=45 d1=33
a2 = 50 b2=71 c2=52 d2=37
a3 = 75 b3=77 c3=58 d3=41

Column "A" is the percent of Economically Disadvantaged Students in the School. Column "B" is the cut-score needed for an "A" rating, Column "C" is the cut-score needed for an "B" rating, and Column "D" is the cut-score needed to earn a "C".

So supposed I have a school that has 63 (housed in cell G1) percent Economically and their score was a 58 (housed in cell H1), using our table that campus earns an "B" rating. How can I arrive at that formulaically?

I can move the cross-tab table columns/rows around if needed.

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
Try this. I added headers for convenience.
