Hey,

What you have done so far is great but the question is asking you to set admitted to True if age is greater than or equal to 13. Therefore, you would need to do something like this:

admitted = None

if age >= 13:
    admitted = True

Admitted is holding initially the 'None' value which is effectively nothing, an empty variable. With python, you change that value to anything you want so in this case, you can easily change in to the boolean value of True.

Hope this helps, Daniel
