Hi Matthew Lehman , I think I found your syntax error, on the line of code where you print the result, you are missing a + after the correct variable. Should look like this:

document.write("You got " + correct + " out of 5 questions correct.");

Hope that works.

Hi David

Thanks a lot, Google chrome javascipt console kept saying my error was a ) problem, so i couldn't figure out the problem.
I caught the area around the same time you caught it.

Thank you for being the extra set of eyes.
