10,725 PointsHi James, you did right, except for one detail. The string in the alert is case sensitive, so the challenge is expecting the word students with s in lower case. And don't forget to use the semicolon in the end of statements:
var isAdmin = false;
var isStudent = true;
if ( isAdmin ) {
alert('Welcome administrator');
} else if ( isStudent ) {
alert('Welcome student'); // just write "student" all in lowercase
}
