invalid syntax (<string>, line 1)

Here is the code I wrote. admitted = None If age >= 13: admitted = True

challenge I'm going to create a variable named age. I need you to make an if condition that sets admitted to True if age is 13 or more.

why am i getting the invalid syntax error.

conditions.py 
admitted = None
If age >= 13:
    admitted = True
