Why does this fail if it reads exactly as it should when I preview ( the conditionals check out correctly)

The conditionals check out and it previews correctly, So why is it failing. I already checked my spelling and spaces.

index.php
<?php
$studentOneName = 'Dave';
$studentOneGPA = 3.8;

$studentTwoName = 'Treasure';
$studentTwoGPA = 4.0;

//Place your code below this comment
if ($studentOneGPA == 4.0){
  echo "$studentOneName made the Honor Role.";
} else{
    echo "$studentOneName has a GPA of" ." ". $studentOneGPA;
}
if ($studentTwoGPA == 4.0){
  echo "$studentTwoName made the Honor Role.";  
}else{
  echo "$studentTwoName has a GPA of" ." ". $studentTwoGPA;

}
