"Your conditional statement is returning the wrong student level"

Any ideas why this is catching an error?

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

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

  get level(){
    const credits = this.credits;

    if (credits>90) {
      return "Senior";
    }
    else if (credits>61 && credits<91) {
      return "Junior";
    }
    else if (credits>30 && credits<61) {
      return "Sophomore";
    }
    else {return "Freshman";}
  }
}

const student = new Student(3.9);

You were so close. It has to do with your if else statement for credits > 61. I changed it to > 60 and passed.

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

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

  get level(){
    const credits = this.credits;

    if (credits>90) {
      return "Senior";
    }
    else if (credits>60 && credits<91){  
      return "Junior";
    }
    else if (credits>30 && credits<61) {
      return "Sophomore";
    }
    else {return "Freshman";}
  }
}

const student = new Student(3.9);
