    Hi ace_SB

     

    Try this

     

    MedScore =
ROUND (
    CALCULATE (
        MEDIANX (
            FILTER ( VALUES ( vw_ABC[Score1] ), vw_ABC[Score1] <> BLANK () ),
            vw_ABC[Score1]

    ),

    Thanks Zubair. Use of Values() is great, but it is still not working. I need to put it in the right place. What I need is median for not null distinct values for only those students picked by the slicer using the view "vw_Option"...
