Creating a basic Getter method

Challenge Task 2 of 2

The getter method should return the level of a student, based on how many credits (this.credits) they have.

If student has more than 90 credits, they are a 'Senior'.
If the student has 90 or fewer credits, but more than 60 (>= 61), they are a 'Junior'.
If the student has 60 or fewer credits, but more than 30 (>= 31), they are a 'Sophomore'.
If the student has 30 or fewer credits, they are a 'Freshman'.

I think Ive forgotten something obvious..

creating_getters.js 
class Student {
    constructor(gpa, credits){
        this.gpa = gpa;
        this.credits = credits;
    }

   stringGPA() {
        return this.gpa.toString();
    }

  get level() {
    if (this.credits > 90)  {
      return 'Senior';
    }else if (this.credits >= 61) {
      return 'Junior';
    }else if (this.credits >= 31) {
      return 'Sophomore';
    }else {
      return 'Freshman';
    }
}



const student = new Student(3.9);

Hey Lee looks like when you were creating you if/else if/else statements you might have accidentally borrowed a closing } from the class Student so now there is 1 closing } missing. Add in another closing } right after the else that way everything is taken care of.

Also with editor here for the challenges you'll want to be mindful of indentation. It will help you spot any missing [],{},()

If the whole get level method was indented one space to the right it probably would have made spotting the closing } a little easier.

Thanks Juan, I knew it was something silly! Thanks for tip! I usually use VScode for indentation which is good and bad!!
