I am getting all of my "ifs", "ands" & "Vlookups" real confused on this one.  
Any help is appreciated.

Here is what I would like to be able to do in J20 in sentence format:
[1] Find the value of H20 in A2:A11 (it will always be one of these values)
and use that row in the following
[2] If I20 >= value of Column C in the row found, Return "Superior" else
[3] IF I20 >= value of Column B in the row found, Return "Minimum" else
[4] Return "Remediate"

    A    B    C
1        Min    Sup
2    11    38    48
3    12    29    39
4    13    23    33
5    14    20    30
6    15    19    29
7    21    18    23
8    22    11    16
9    23    5    10
10    24    5    10
11    25    5    10

I hope my explanation makes sense.  My head hurts. Thanks

This should do the trick:

=IF(I20>=VLOOKUP(H20,A:C,3,FALSE),"Superior",IF(I20>=VLOOKUP(H20,A:C,
2,FALSE),"Minimum","Remediate"))

Cheers,

Ya gotta love this group!  It took me longer to write the question than to
get the response!  Thanks.

Not any shorter, but just another way to look at it

=CHOOSE(SUMPRODUCT(--(I20>=VLOOKUP(H20,A:C,{2,3},FALSE)))+1,"Remediate","Minimum","Superior")
