Your code is a bit complicated for this challenge. The challenge asks you to return the number of remaining characters based on what is stored in mText. So, all you need to do is return MAX_CHAR - mText.length();
. That's all that's within the function!

Courses Plus Student 6,497 PointsThis works for me for the challenge. Try this:
public class Tweet { private String mText; public static final int MAX_LENGTH = 140;
public Tweet(String text) { while(text.length() < MAX_LENGTH){ mText = text; } }
public String getText() { return mText; }
}
