Merging data in Excel, but keep duplicates

I have an Excel sheet with student names and ID numbers, and another sheet with ID numbers and testing information. The sheet with testing information has a row of English and a row of Math for each ID number, so the ID numbers are duplicated. I need to create a sheet with the Student names, ID numbers, and testing information with 2 rows for each student.



The sheet with testing information has more students than I need - I have the set of students in the first sheet with the names and ID numbers, so I can't just copy and paste. The current process is to just go through the larger set and delete the rows of students we don't need (for ~400/500 students, no thanks).



I was trying to follow this video - https://youtu.be/0uWjXuhvqB8 but I ended up with the same student IDs and test information for every student.

Sheet2 - ID Numbers & Testing info
Sheet3 - Final format needed

    Sounds like you may be looking for VLOOKUP and/or INDEX/MATCH
