As most of you would know, I am re-opening Excel School Online Excel Training Program on June 14th. That means, I am very busy doing behind the scenes work so that new students get best possible excel learning experience when they come rushing next week. (That is why you are seeing less no. of posts on Chandoo.org this week).
But I have few last minute surprises for you. Just read on if you are interested to learn excel and become even more awesome.
1. Find-out if you need a training program like Excel School using this Quiz:
One of the prospective students of Excel School suggested this. However, I couldn’t set up an online quiz. But I could whip up an excel based quiz.
Download the Excel School Assessment Quiz [Excel 2003 version here] and find-out if you would need a program like excel school.
Even if you don’t want to join Excel School, download the file. It is beautiful and has a ton of Excel Trickery. You might end up learning a thing or two about Excel from the file alone.
2. What is it Like to be in Excel School?
I have created a short 7 minute video in which you can get a sneak-peek preview of Excel School.
3. What do Students of Batch 1 think about Excel School?
I have asked my batch 1 students to tell me what is it they like in Excel School. 30 of them enthusiastically responded. I have compiled some of the responses in a page.
Check out student testimonials to know why Excel School is really awesome.
4. Download Excel School Course Guide
This is a small presentation style document with details about Excel School program. You can send this to your boss / manager and easily convince her to sponsor the training cost for you.
Download the Excel school course contents [PDF]
5. Last few days to get 3 free lessons
Only 3 more days before I close the free lesson offer. So go here and enter your name and email id. I will send you 3 free lessons. If you like what you saw, you are going to love what you will see in Excel School.
6. Pricing of Excel School
Excel School will come in 2 flavors
- Online option: you can watch all the lessons online, download example files and do more
- Download option: everything in Online option + ability to download all lessons in HD.
Last time, readers from India asked for special pricing as paying in $s is expensive. So this time, I have special pricing for Indian students. See the below pricing structure to know what it would cost to sign up for Excel School.
Any more questions?
Post a comment or write an email and ask me. I would be very glad to answer your questions.
See you in Excel School 🙂

Ciao Hui,
Collecting Excel tricks under the title “Notable Excel Websites (Non-MVP) Edition” is a brilliant idea…
Thank you in the name of all The FrankensTeam.
On our site there is a box with a picture and text highlighting:
This is a no-MVP site
we think ourselves “bad boys” a bit 🙂
For those who would like to know why our site is a no-MVP site, enough to click on the link:

Thank you again!
Thanks a lot
I really enjoyed this (newsletter). I must admit that I rarely read an Excel newsletter (and I subscribe to quite a few) all the way though, but this grabbed my attention and before I realized it, I was engrossed in it. I must also admit that most of this I don’t understand, yet. But, it excites me when I do learn something new in Excel. I can’t wait to see how much of this I can implement into my (constantly-evolving) ‘House Budget’ & ‘Family Medical’ worksheets that I have developed over the past few years! I sure hope to see more of these type of newsletters in the future! Thanks!
Thanks for doing this Hui! I appreciate being included.
I like Tom’s tip a lot. I posted about a tool I wrote to automate this at http://yoursumbuddy.com/tables-edit-query-dialog/
EXCELLENT !
Hui, This post is Superb! More over I have always been a fan of Roberto’s work and have learnt a lot from him.

I like the Excel Ninja Menus.
1. Select a cell or range then move till the 4-way cross appears. Right-Click and drag the selection to another place in the worksheet then, like a ninja, a menu full of skills and throwing stars pops up allowing me to do all kinds of awesomeness.
2. When you click the fill box on a Date and right click and drag it down, a lot of amazing Date options pop up.
I also brand my Excel to remind myself that I’m awesome. In my personal macro workbook I place the following code.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.Caption = “SuperKrishna’s Awesomeness”
End Sub
My favorite tip goes along with #17. If you try to copy subtotaled data (and in earlier Excel versions filtered data),when you paste it all the data displays instead of just the summarized data.
To get around this, select your summarized data, click on Find and Select tab and then select Go to Special. Click Visible cells Only and click OK. Now paste and you will see that only the summarized data has been copied.
You can also go CTRL+G and then click the Special icon at the bottom of the dialog box.
What a great idea, Chandoo! I’d love to be included in your next edition:) Perhaps a VBA exclusive version?
@Ryan
I will review this concept about 6 months out from the original post and be sure to keep your site in mind
Hui…
That sounds great, Hui:) I just realized I gave credit to Chandoo for the idea and I should have attributed it to you.
Sorry about that!
