Hi there! What you are logging out to the console is correct. However, they are asking for the value of the userName variable to be assigned what you are currently logging out. Also, the challenge does not ask you to use console.log. So in your example, the value you have assigned to userName is still in lowercase. But it wants the upper-case assigned to the variable. Take a look:

var userName = id.toUpperCase()+"#"+lastName.toUpperCase();

This will assign the upper-case value to the variable instead of leaving it lower case and simply displaying the upper case variant.

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
