I am checking exactly that in second if statement.
<?php
$studentOneName = 'Dave';
$studentOneGPA = 3.8;
$studentTwoName = 'Treasure';
$studentTwoGPA = 4.0;
//Place your code below this comment
if ($studentOneGPA == 4.0) {
echo " $studentOneName made the Honor Roll.";}
else {
echo " $studentOneName has a GPA of $studentOneGPA.";}
if ($studentTwoGPA = 4.0) {
echo " $studentTwoName made the Honor Roll.";}
else {
echo " $studentTwoName has a GPA of $studentTwoGPA.";}
?>

It all looks great, except for a small typo which is resulting in a Syntax Error. The error message is a big hint.
If you look at the conditional statement that is checking the GPA for the second student, you'll notice that you accidentally put a single =
sign (which assigns) instead of the double ==
(which checks equality). Just fix that up and the rest is good.
Nice work! :)
