Final else clause

Please what is wrong with the code because it is saying the Who are you is not seen. Thanks

var isAdmin = false; var isStudent = false;

if ( isAdmin ) { alert('Welcome administrator'); } else if (isStudent) { alert('Welcome student'); } else { alert("Who are you"); }

script.js 
var isAdmin = false;
var isStudent = false;

if ( isAdmin ) {
    alert('Welcome administrator');
} else if (isStudent) {
    alert('Welcome student');
} else { 
        alert("Who are you");
}

I think you're missing the question mark in the else statement

else { alert('Who are you?'); }
