Analyze Results from Microsoft FORMS POLLS in Excel | Watch Chris Work

Posted on: 05/02/2022

I recently spoke at the Administrative Professional Day Conference hosted by the University of Georgia. After reviewing my survey results in Microsoft Forms, I realized I needed to analyze the survey data. Forms results are immediately available in Excel.

**Microsoft Forms - Analyze data in Excel**

After opening in Excel, I did the following functions in Excel: average, max, min, median, large, and trimmean functions. I added a helper column to calculate the time required to take the survey. Finally, I tested a few of the functions to ensure they were correct. This is something I needed to do so you actually get to see me work. I'm going to start a series called Watch Chris Work.
