Multiple Column, multiple IFS and multiple Returns

Hello All, I'm am trying to return a text based off of IFS in two columns.  I'm not sure how I go about it.  The "Score Rank" column was fairly easy to do, but I'm not sure about adding another colu...

    hi Anonymous 

    this info is critical, try this:

    Score_Rank = 
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    [Type]="Issue", [Type],
    [Probability]<8, "low",
    [Probability]<15, "medium",
   "high"
)

Thank you for the quick response, but I'm not sure if I'm understanding. 

This is how I created the Score Rank column:

 

Score_Rank = IF(AND([Risk score]>=0, [Risk score]<8),"low",
 IF(AND([Risk score]>=8, [Risk score]<15),"medium",
  IF(AND([Risk score]>=15, [Risk score]<30),"high")))
 
The "score_rank" column I'm trying to populate has to have that, but if "issue" is in the Type column, then I need to return "Issue" instead of low, medium, or high.  
 
Thank again,
Mike

    Thank you.  That's got me about 90% there. 

    I should have been more specific with calculation explanation.  If the type is "Issue", then the only value it can return is "Issue"  For "Risk", it follows the below criteria:

    Low = 0-8

    Med = 9-14

    High = 14+

    The formula is returning incorrect values for the Score_Rank column. 

    Example of what's its returning:

     

    Type     Prob  Score Rank  Score_Rank

    Risk      9         Medium      Low

    Risk       5
