basically i want to count how many examinee has a scaled score of 1,2,3,4,5 both for table 2 and 3

Answer 1

Try the following query. It will list each scaled score and a count of students even if the count is 0. Change “FROM verbal” to “FROM written” for the written table.

SELECT v.scaledscore as [Scaled Score], count(i.rawscore) as [Count]
FROM verbal v LEFT JOIN basicinfo i ON v.rawscore = i.rawscore
GROUP BY v.scaledscore
