You're on the right track. You don't need to assign a value to age. The challenge checker will set age to various values when evaluating the code.

To the first task:

  • comment out the line setting age.

  • fix typos in if statement. Use > and not both is >. Add missing colon : at the end. Then add missing statement assigning admitted to the body of the if code block.
