Also, to call the toUpperCase method, you must have a pair of parentheses after the name. Otherwise, you're comparing the method itself with the correct answer (which will never match).

Could you provide some context as to what you think is wrong with your code? Is there something specific not working?
I'd recommend taking a look at this line:
document.write("<p>Very bad</p>";)
Happy coding!
