Inside the getter method use the conditional statement of your choice to determine the level of the student. If the value of the "credits" property is over 90, return 'Senior'. If it's between 61 and 90, return 'Junior'. If it's between 31 and 60, return 'Sophomore'. If it's 30 or less, return 'Freshman'.'
class Student {
constructor(gpa, credits){
this.gpa = gpa;
this.credits = credits;
}
get level( ) {
if (this.credits >= 90 ) {
return 'Senior'
}else if ( this.credits >=61 && this.credits<=90){
return 'Junior'}
else if ( this.credits >= 31 && this.credits<= 60){
return 'Sophomore'}
else ( this.credits <= 30){
return 'Freshman' }
}
stringGPA() {
return this.gpa.toString();
}
}
const student = new Student(3.9);

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);

When you write >= You are saying this.credits should be above 90 but it can also be 90. Which is not over 90 which we are looking for in this case.
Also you are not needed to write;
this.credits >=61 && this.credits<=90
There is no need to state a range between numbers since your if-statement will read top to bottom if things are true. Since the higher if statements doesnt turn true it means its not above 90, and its not above 60
get level() {
if(this.credits > 90) { // is my credit above 90? - no
return 'Senior';
} else if(this.credits > 60) { // is my credit above 60 then? - no
return 'Junior';
} else if (this.credits > 30) { // But my credit is above 30? - yes
return 'Sophomore'; // this code runs
} else { // everything less than 30 would have run here, even negative credits
return 'Freshman';
}
}

IS YOUR CORRECT ANSWER

A plain "else" doesn't take (or need) a conditional expression.
Also, the instructions say "If the value of the "credits" property is over 90, return 'Senior'", but this code will also return 'Senior' when the credits are exactly 90.
So just remove the unneeded conditional and change your comparison from ">=" to just ">" and you'll have it.
