The SKEW function in Excel measures the symmetry of a distribution. A value of 0 indicates perfect symmetry, negative values indicate left skew (more scores to the left), and positive values indicate right skew (more scores to the right). Therefore, the SKEW function is the best choice for examining the symmetry of a set of scores.
