Bummer! Don't set the `age` variable, I'll do that for you.

admitted = None age = 13 if age > 10: admitted = True else: admitted = False

conditions.py
admitted = None
age = 13
if age > 10:
    admitted = True
else:
    admitted = False

Hi, I think the instructions are meant for you to create an if statement that evaluates "age", regardless of what "age" is. That is, don't give age a value... just use it in your if statement... like:

admitted = None if age >= 13: admitted = True else: admitted = False

If age is greater than or equal to 13, set the admitted variable to True... else, set the admitted variable to False. Thanks, D.

Great!
