I have tried every possible way to pass the else statement
else elif else / if else if not elif not
but I kept getting the same issue. I have even got a message just saying Try Again as a term for a fix but I cannot seem to find the answer. I have been working on this one problem for about 3 days now and I am not sure what to do with the issue!.
admitted = None
if age >= 13:
admitted = "True"
else:
admitted = "False"

Treehouse TeacherHi there! You're doing great, but something has happened to your code between when you submitted it from the first step and what it is currently. The task asks you to set admitted to the boolean value of True. Currently, you are setting it to the string value of "True".
The code at the end of step one should look like this:
admitted = None
if age >= 13:
admitted = True #note the removal of the quotation marks here
The same thing will need to be done when setting the value to False. It should be the boolean value False and not the string value. If I simply remove the quotation marks from both, your code passes with flying colors!
Hope this helps!

2,037 PointsHi Anton, you don't need to have 'else' section here, you're asked to set admitted to 'True' if age is equal or bigger than 13, otherwise it should stay 'None'. So for task 1 you should have only:
admitted = None
if age >= 13:
admitted = True
