I dont think I need the variables but it passed Task 1 when I set admitted = True
admitted = None
admitted = True
admitted = False
if age >= 13:
admitted == True
else:
admitted == False

Your conditional statement has the correct syntax, but your assignments of admitted == True should be admitted = True. It's an assignment.

But on the lines below the "if", you have comparisons ("==") where you should have assignments ("=").
