C++ does not support implied left hand side in conditionals. You must fully specify the conditions.
Example:
if (ans == 'Y' || 'y') evaluates as if ((ans == 'Y') || ('y'))

('y') always evaluates to 1 (true), therefore the if statement is always true.

if(result >= 70 && <= 90)
Should be:
if(result >= 70 && result <= 90)

PLEASE ALWAYS USE CODE TAGS (the <> formatting button) when posting code.
It makes it easier to read your code and also easier to respond to your post.

I'm trying not be a peon here but the formatting is doing it's job.

Within the 70-90 condition:

cout << " Although you scored a " << result << "% there is always room for improvement"
is missing a semicolon.

Edit: Also, the conditional statements probably don't cover the full range of averages as desired. Look carefully at the ranges and see if anything is missing (if any scores might "slip through, so to speak).

Thanks I just wanted to test out nested ifs. My next one is to to if if else and cover the full grading scale with user validation.
