BSci Credit points

Hey guys,
Just a bit confused about my credit points for BSci. I've been trying to go off the 'rules' in the study plan:
Spoiler
All of the following rules must be satisfied:
Between 62.5 and 87.5 points of level 1 Science
Between 62.5 and 87.5 points of level 2 Science
Between 25 and 50 points of level 3 Science
No more than 37.5 points at level 1 from any single discipline
No more than 150 points of level 1 and 2 Science
No more than 112.5 points of level 1 and 3 Science
No more than 112.5 points of level 2 and 3 Science

My course has been as follows:
Spoiler
First year: 5 Level 1 Science, 1 Level 2 Science, 1 Level 1 Breadth, 1 Level 2 Breadth
Second Year (2018): 6 Level 2 Science, 1 Level 1 Breadth, 1 Level 2 Breadth
Planned Third Year: 4 Level 3 Science, 1 Level 2 Breadth, 1 Level 3 Breadth + 2 extra subjects

Basically I'm trying to work out if I can do any more science subjects with my spare spots in Third year, as it seems like the rules restrict you to 4 Level 3, but also no more than 9 Level 1 and 3 combined, which I already will exceed? I thought i had 1 Level 1 Science subject left that I could do in third year, but now I'm confused...
Thanks in advance for anyone's help :)

The rules don't apply to the four subjects you take as your major in third year. So by your plan those two extra subjects in third year would have to be level 3 science subjects as you need 75 points for level 3 science subjects. You can still do a level 1 science subject in third year but you would have to drop one of your breadths. I hope this makes sense.
