Conditional count for a category column

I am very new to Power BI. I try to do a conditional count for a category column, and here is my syntax. COURSE_MODALITY is the table, and GRADE_AWARDED is the column. I want to count number of grade...

    Hi xliu1 

     

    DF Grades = calculate(COUNT(COURSE_MODALITY[GRADE_AWARDED]),COURSE_MODALITY[GRADE_AWARDED] IN {"D","D+","D-","F","U"})

xliu1 , try like

DF Grades = COUNTAX(FILTER(COURSE_MODALITY,RELATED([GRADE_AWARDED]) IN {"D","D+","D-","F","U"}))

or

DF Grades = countrows(FILTER(COURSE_MODALITY,RELATED([GRADE_AWARDED]) IN {"D","D+","D-","F","U"}))

    Hi amitchandak thanks for your prompt response. I tried both syntaxes. The first one still gives me the same error message. The 2nd one gives me the message: function RELATED expects a fully qualified column reference as its argument. Any idea? Thanks!
