When I press the preview my code button, the results are the ones we are looking for. However, checking my work is indicating that my code is wrong.
It seems that the "Check work" function is looking for a specific format in order to judge whether the code I entered is correct or not.
<?php
$studentOneName = 'Dave';
$studentOneGPA = 3.8;
$studentTwoName = 'Treasure';
$studentTwoGPA = 4.0;
//Place your code below this comment<?php
if ($studentOneGPA == 4) { echo "$studentOneName made the Honor Role"; }
else { echo "$studentOneName has a GPA of $studentOneGPA"; }
echo "<br/>";
if ($studentTwoGPA == 4) { echo "$studentTwoName made the Honor Role"; }
else { echo "$studentTwoName has a GPA of $studentTwoGPA"; }
?>

Treehouse TeacherYes, it is looking for a specific thing. And you're not the first one to run into this. I submitted a bug report on Friday. But lack of whitespace will break it. Specifically, the echo must be on its own line. I posted a solution here and if you look at it, you'll notice the logic is the same (other than you have an additional <br />). Hope this helps!
