I've created a simple if/else statement like so : 

var myName = ["Mark"];

if myName.length <= 3;

{

    console.log("It's not true");

}
else 
{

    console.log("Variable consists of" myName.length);
    console.log("I finished my first course".substring(0,26));

}

Unfortunately, the console returns this error : SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier

I've tried to add square brackets to var myName = "Mark"; but it didn't help.

Reset to default 5

With 

var myName = ["Mark"]

you are assiging an array to the myName, which is not what you want in this case:

var myName = "Mark"

You have to use parentheses around the if-condition. Also the semicolon is wrong:

if (myName.length <= 3){
     ...
}

In the else-block you've got the first statement wrong. You have to use + to concatenate the arguments that you want to print:

console.log("Variable consists of" + myName.length);
