Shouldn't your last else if statement for ranking have the condition (count >= 1) not (count >= 2)?

This is my code and it works great:

let rank = ""; if(score === 5){ rank = "Gold"; }else if(score >= 3){ rank = "Silver"; }else if(score >= 1) { rank = "Bronze"; }else{ rank = "No crown"; }

I think your last else if statement needs to be (score >= 1), not (score >=2 )

hi Bodie. Nice catch you are correct. If you take a look at the teachers notes the correction is there

if ( correct === 5 ) {
  rank = "Gold"; 
} else if ( correct >= 3 ) {
  rank = "Silver";  
} else if ( correct >= 1 ) { // check for 1-2 correct
  rank = "Bronze";  
} else {
  rank = "None :(";

I had this same question. Glad I found it before posting a duplicate. :-) Thanks to both of you cuz I was worried I wasn't understanding something.
