3,752 PointsAdd an else if clause that tests to see if the isStudent variable is true. -How can we check what the right answers are?
I get the correct alert box message, but question keeps getting counted as wrong - Please advise-
var isAdmin = false;
var isStudent = true;
if ( isAdmin ) {
alert('Welcome administrator')
}else if(isStudent === true){
alert("Welcome Student")
}

Treehouse TeacherHi there! You're doing fine and your syntax and logic are spot on. However, challenges are very strict and must be followed to the letter. In this case, you've capitalized the "S" in "Student".
This is what it's looking for:
alert("Welcome student"); //note the capitalization
While the semicolon is not absolutely necessary for this challenge, I included it as it's always best practice to end each statement with a semicolon.
Hope this helps!
