How to get an exact match with VLOOKUP into the current cell

The name "Dodson" is on A5, the lookup is from B5, the table A16:B19, the value in the second column of the table, but am looking for the precise result of a VLOOKUP.

The formula I have is:

=VLOOKUP($B5,$A$16:$B$19,2,FALSE)

students:

price:

Silver   400.00 Gold     550.00 Titanium     700.00 Platinum     750.00 

Trying to get an exact match using relative and absolute cell references.

And then copied into other cells.

Not too sure about the true/false usage here, as I get odd results with “true” which should be exact.

Not looking to use XLOOKUP or other functions.
