Conditional Statement Difficulty

Could someone check my code to see what I'm doing wrong in my conditional statement?

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 && this.credits < 90) {
  return 'Junior';
  } else if (this.credits >= 31 && this.credits < 60) {
  return 'Sophomore';
  } else { return 'Freshman';}
  };
}

const student = new Student(3.9);

Thanks in advance!

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 && this.credits < 90) {
  return 'Junior';
  } else if (this.credits >= 31 && this.credits < 60) {
  return 'Sophomore';
  } else { return 'Freshman';}
  };
}

const student = new Student(3.9);

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'.'

check, the wording, again here, If the value of the "credits" property is over 90 check If it's between 61 and 90 similarly the other

if (this.credits >= 90) { //is this over 90 or over and equal 90
   return 'Senior';
  } else if (this.credits >= 61 && this.credits < 90) { //is this between, or are you missing 90
  return 'Junior';
  } else if (this.credits >= 31 && this.credits < 60) { //is this between, or are you missing 60
  return 'Sophomore';
  } else { return 'Freshman';}
  }
