✍️ Sample Google Sheets Test Questions & Answers

1. In a QUERY WHERE clause, how should a text value be enclosed?
In single quotes, e.g. WHERE B = 'Active'

Text literals inside the query string are wrapped in single quotes so they don't clash with the outer double quotes.

2. In a color scale, what does the 'Midpoint' setting control?
An optional middle color and its threshold value

The midpoint adds an optional third color at a chosen value type such as percentile, number, or percent.

3. What does the MEDIAN function return for a dataset?
The middle value when data is sorted in order

MEDIAN returns the middle value after sorting; for an even count it averages the two middle values.

4. Which chart type stacks categories to compare both totals and component parts across groups?
Stacked column chart

A stacked column chart shows segment contributions and overall totals per group.

5. Which Google Sheets function returns a number (1–7) representing the day of the week for a given date?
WEEKDAY()

WEEKDAY(date, [type]) returns the day of the week as a number, with the type argument controlling which day is numbered 1.

6. To return the LAST matching value instead of the first, which XLOOKUP argument do you adjust?
Set search_mode to -1

search_mode -1 searches from last to first, returning the final match instead of the first.
