Hey your code is close but you have the >= in the wrong order. Make sure the equal to is always last. 

if age >= 13:
    admitted = True

You're on the right track, but you have a few issues yet:

  • the word "is" won't be needed in the comparison expression
  • instead of "=>", the symbol for "greater or equal" is ">="
  • if the condition passes, you still need to set admited to True, but you won't need to "print" anything
