Perhaps try to validate the 'build version model and year' of the MacBook Pro

you actually have, because that is something only you may do successfully.

[This, based on presumption you can use the device to delve into its system.]

One place to check aside from build model number and serial numbers lookup

(and About This Mac, in Finder window) may be found among items here:

Identify your MacBook Pro model - Apple Support

//support.apple.com/en-us/HT201300

"Your Mac provides several tools to help you identify it. The simplest is

'About This Mac', available by choosing About This Mac from the Apple

menu  in the upper-left corner of your screen. The other is the System

Information app. Learn how to use these tools to identify your Mac."

"IF don’t have your Mac or it doesn’t start up, use one of these solutions instead.."

(And more things to check & see are inside linked article.)

Not I normal Software Update Applet in System Preferences

Not in Safe Mode

Not in Recovery Mode

Not even using a special Terminal command to download the Full Version of Ventura

If and only If the newer version of macOS is that important and not a Want versus a Need

Explore the Apple Trade-In  Process where the Value of the exiting device could be used against the cost of a new Apple Computer, iPhone or iPad 

Notation - Some devices and depending on the computers age may have little to no value at Trade In time.

But at least the device will not arrive to the Land Fill Site and be recycled in a responsible way by Apple

Or Shop Refurbished Apple computers at an Apple Reduced Cost

Have used both previously and have been satisfied each time.

Your MacBook Pro model is not compatible with Ventura. You need a 2017 or later model.
