Hi Amber,

A semi-colon is used to terminate statements in JavaScript, not a colon, so the quiz question will not accept it as the correct syntax.

It worked for me with a semi-colon. Can you provide the code you were trying to submit?

Hello,

const studentInfo = document.querySelectorAll('[class=student-info]'); => this did not work, but in workspaces it does work.

Instead, to complete the quiz I used this: const studentInfo = document.querySelectorAll('.student-info');
