Your code is right but the logic is off, or reversed more accurately. The challenge wants the exception to be thrown if the value is less than 0 or greater than 20. Your code throws the exception if the value is not less than 0 or greater than 20.

If you swap the code in your else block with the code in your if block like this:

int value = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());   
if(value < 0  || value >20)
{
    throw new System.Exception("Outside of the Range");
}
else
{
    Console.WriteLine(string.Format("You entered {0}",value));
}

Then your code will pass.
