Close.

What is the index of the sublist that contains Sam’s info? (Remember to start at 0).

sams_score = score[0][1] gives you 90 because you are pointing to the first element of the outer array wich Is [“Jenny”, 90]
sams_score = score[2][1] should give you the right answer.

I was attempting to help them and let them think it through to arrive at the answer, rather than just giving them the answer…
