SELECT * FROM users WHERE last_name IN ("Hinkley", "Pettit");
I might be getting ahead of things, I don't remember if that operator has been introduced yet at this point in the course.
And for future questions, or if Edward didn't guess the issue, please show your entire query here to allow a more specific answer.

3,532 PointsHi, I imagine you probably had issues with the end of your statement rather than the start considering you completed the first part.
The answer I got was:
SELECT * FROM users WHERE last_name = "Hinkley" OR last_name = "Pettit";
I imagine you put said something like last_name = "Hinkley" OR "Pettit" ?
Easy mistake to make
