Add a final else clause to this conditional statement. If both the isAdmin and isStudent variables are false, the value

script.js 
const isAdmin = false;
const isStudent = false;
let message;

if ( isAdmin ) {
  message = 'Welcome admin';
} else if ( isStudent ) {
  message = 'Welcome student';
} else ( isAdmin + isStudent = false ) { 
  message = 'Access denied';
}

A final "else" doesn't take a conditional expression. It doesn't need one since it handles all cases not already done by the previous "if" and "else if" blocks.
