I dont understand what is the objective.

I dont understand what is the objective. How should the result look? Description is not clear enough

What kind of value should be put into major? How does the end result look like?

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){
        //this._major = major;
      if(this.level == 'Senior' && this.level == 'Junior'){
        this._major = major;
      }
      else {
        this._major = 'None';
      }
    };
}

var student = new Student(3.9, 60);

You're very close. They just want 'or' instead of 'and' on line 25. "If the student's level is Junior or Senior..."

if(this.level == 'Senior' && this.level == 'Junior'){ } // switch && to ||

Ookay, that did it, thank you so much :D (But the entire exercise description is really confusing)
