Not correct, why?

if ($studentOneGPA == 4.0) { echo "$studentOneName made the Honor Roll.\n"; } else { echo "$studentOneName has a GPA of GPA.\n"; } if ($studentTwoGPA == 4.0) { echo "$studentTwoName made the Honor Roll.\n"; } else { echo "$studentTwoName has a GPA of GPA.\n"; }

index.php 
<?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.\n";
} else {
  echo "$studentOneName has a GPA of GPA.\n";
}
if ($studentTwoGPA == 4.0) {
  echo "$studentTwoName made the Honor Roll.\n";
} else {
  echo "$studentTwoName has a GPA of GPA.\n";
}
?>

Hey there Siarhei, you've missed the GPA variables in the else statements.

This worked for me. You didn't out put the actual GPA on the else statements. I also used === instead of ==. It didn't say to put a period after Roll.

<?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;
}
?>
