For task 1 of 2, you're assuming that there is a variable age (not explicitly typed). Then you're supposed to check if age is greater than or equal to 13. If it is, set the variable admitted equal to True. You would complete this challenge like so:

admitted = None

if age >= 13:
    admitted = True

When you set a variable to be true, you need to use the following syntax, True. Make sure to capitalize the first letter. The same goes for False or None as well.

Hi Brian,

I think you meant to put

if age >= 13:

I made it before, and its showed me: Bummer! unorderable types: NoneType() >= int()

My apologies. I meant to compare age to 13, not admitted. Please see my edited response.
