Only problem I can see you spent more than 3 years for level 4 and 5 courses. Other than that if your calculation is right and if you meet all the other requirements then you can go for the level 7 course and extend your visa.

Hi
If you check the HO wordings ......
You can not stay more than 3 years on level 4/5 and
Not more than 5 years on level 6/7.....
It does not mean you can not stay more than 8 years on tier 4 visa
So in my point of view you can spend 2 more years on level 6/7
Best regards
