help with IF function?

Copper Contributor

I am trying to setup a function for the following:

 

Calculating a grade based on satisfactory, needs improvement, and unsatisfactory grades. Grades have been entered as s, ni, and u. I would like to calculate at the end whichever letter is most used is the final grade. But I cannot seem to find a function that would work for this. I have tried MAX, and IF. 

 

The grades are in one row and the end of the row is where I need to enter the function to determine which letter is used most.

That could be

=INDEX(range,MODE(MATCH(range,range,0)))
