This doesn't work either

It's never false at all. Impossible.

conditions.py 
admitted = None
age = 13
if age <= 13:
    admitted = True
    else age >= 13:
        admitted = False

refer to my answer on your previous question. Indentation controls the flow of programs in python.

Correct code:

admitted = None
if age >= 13:
    admitted = True
else:
    admitted = False

That doesn't work. I had indented and it doesn't like it at all. Keeps saying task 1 isn't passing anything.

The question asks for patient to be admitted if age is greater than or equal to 13, all you need to do is change '<' to '>'. I've changed my answer to reflect the correct code.

be sure to use the greater than

admitted = None age = 13 if age >= 13:
admitted = True else: admitted = False

I tried that too, it still won't pass through at all
