Question is not specific enough

the question states. "We will be writing ONLY the SQL query for this challenge. The library database contains a Media table with the columns media_id, title, img, format, year and category. It also contains a Genres table with the columns genre_id and genre. To join these tables, there is a Media_Genres table that contains the column media_id and genre_id Add to the following SELECT statement to JOIN the Media table and the Genres table using the joining table Media_Genres. SELECT * FROM Media WHERE media_id=3; NOTE: You will need to add the table to the WHERE clause so that the media_id column is not ambiguous."

i have done this, i am not sure what i am doing wrong.

my code is as follows.

SELECT * FROM Media JOIN Media_Genres on Media.media_id = Media_Genres.media_id JOIN Genres ON Genres.genre_id = Media_Genres.genre_id and genres.genre_id = media.genre_id WHERE Media.media_id=3 ;

You have an extra clause in your statement "and genres.genre_id = media.genre_id" is essentially the same as the other join but the case is incorrect.
