Inserting echo via mysql statement - php

Question

I am aiming to insert the respective learning style into the database if the echo statement has been triggered by the if statement. The DB columns are as follows: studentNumber, dimension1, dimension2, dimension3, dimension4. Any feedback would be appreciated. Trialing 'mildly active' hence the statement only being present at that stage of the code.
