Nope, you are correct!!!! whats the actual issue is that you have a Syntax Error!

After the if statement it needs to be ended with a ":" w/o quotation marks, so it looks a little something like this:

admitted = None

if age >= 13:

admitted = True

Don't worry about it, you understand the material perfectly!
