={MEDIAN(IF($B$2:$B$16=B2,$D$2:$D$16))}
={MEDIAN(IF($B$2:$B$16=B3,$D$2:$D$16))}
={MEDIAN(IF($B$2:$B$16=B4,$D$2:$D$16))}
so on column of median

Hello @Dynamo14324
Just playing the Devil's advocate how do you know that Python will be any faster?
What I would suggest is to figure out what is going on to slow down this process and then figure out how to speed it up. I tried this on my development machine (3.07 gigahertz Intel Xeon X5675 (2 installed) and MS-Excel is using all 24 Hyper-threads) and it took a millisecond! No I did not measure the time, I just guesstimated. Tell us what version of MS-Excel are you using and stuff like that and lets see if we can help you speed this up.
