Inside the major() setter method, set the student's major to a backing property "major". If the student's level is Junior or Senior, the value of the backing property should be equal to the parameter passed to the setter method. If the student is only a Freshman or Sophomore, set the "major" backing property equal to 'None

creating_setters.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 > 60) {
            return 'Junior';
        } else if (this.credits > 30) {
            return 'Sophomore';
        } else {
            return 'Freshman';
        }
    }
  set major(major) {
    if(this.level==='Senior' || this.level==='Junior') {
        this._major = major;
    }else{
      this._major = 'none';

  }

Hey Abson!

You're missing a closing curly brace in your else statement. Add that and your code will pass.

Hope this helps!
