Hi there! I'm going to start you off with some hints here. I will use my name as an example.

  • If I received a GPA of 4.0 it should echo out "Jennifer made the Honor Roll".
  • If I received a GPA of 2.7 it should echo out "Jennifer has a GPA of 2.7".
  • Your echo out for if student two looks correct if student two made a 4.0, but if they didn't it will just echo out their name and nothing more.
  • Your echo out for if student one has a 4.0 is incorrect. If Dave had made a 4.0 it would now be echoing out "Dave has a GPA of GPA". If Dave did not make a 4.0, it will simply echo out "Dave".

I hope these hints help, but let me know if you're still stuck! :sparkles:
