It says this is incorrrect: Invalid syntax (line 1). Line 1 was already filled in when I got to this challenge.

What am I missing? I wrote the 2nd line.

conditions.py 
admitted = None
if admitted >= 13

Hi there! Yes, the compiler errors can be a little odd, I know. However, an if statement should end with a colon : and yours doesn't. But adding a colon won't solve the entire thing. You still need to tell it what to do if that evaluated to true.

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
