My solution is quiet different. Could you point something in my code, as if I'm moving in to the right direction or not.

function buildHTML (arr) {
    var html = ' ';

    for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i += 1) {
        html += '<p> Student ' + (i + 1) + '</p>';
        html += buildListFromObject(arr[i]);    
    }
    return html;
}

function toUpper (str) {
    return str.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + str.slice(1);
}


function buildListFromObject (obj) {
    var html = '<ol>';

    for (var prop in obj) {
        html += '<li>' + toUpper(prop) + ': ' + obj[prop] + '</li>';
    }

    html += '</ol>';
    return html;
}

print(buildHTML(students));

Oh, and the reason for different headings, I've done the task right after part one video.

If the solution is different than what he/she expects you to put, it may mark it as wrong. These automated quizzes are sometimes looking for a particular result, and you need to use the process they recently instructed you on.
