Help figuring out where I am going wrong with the PHP conditional?

I'm working on the Conditionals task in the PHP basics course. I've submitted this response:

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

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

//Place your code below this comment

if ($studentOneGPA == 4.0) { echo "$studentOneName has made the honor roll"; } else { echo "$studentOneName has a GPA of $studentOneGPA"; }

if ($studentTwoGPA == 4.0) { echo "$studentTwoName has made the honor roll"; } else { echo "$studentTwoName has a GPA of $studentTwoGPA"; }

?>

But the app returns an error stating "make sure you add the else blocks". I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong as I thought I have added the else statement correctly. Can anyone show me where I'm going wrong?

Thanks! Eloise

Hi Eloise Your Code 100% Right but in this code challenge you must use ,, concat the right code : 

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

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


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; 
}


?>
