Here it is the code that i've created and when I put a wrong answer still read 2 correct answer...don't know where I'm failing...

// quiz begins, no answer correct var correct = 0;

// ask questions var answer1 = prompt('Name the best team in the NBA'); if (answer1.toUpperCase() === 'HAWKS'); { correct += 1; } var answer2 = prompt('Name the best MLB team'); if (answer2.toUpperCase() === 'DODGERS' || answer2.toUpperCase() === 'LA'); { correct += 1; }

if (correct === 2){ document.write('you are great'); } else if (correct === 1){ document.write('you are good') } else { document.write('watch espn'); }

Rick, you shouldn't put a semicolon at the end of your if statements (before the opening curly brace), it should just be:

if (conditional) {
  // code to be executed
}
