There are different stages of ripe, if you want to chop it up over a salad or in a sandwich you don't want it too soft, but firm enough where you can cut it in cubes.

Some of the ways you can test are if your Avo is ripe is peeling back the stem, if the hole where the stem was is dark, then it is too late. If the hole where the stem was is bright yellowish green, then it is ready to eat.
