Is GATE tougher than JEE?

Me: 'Everyone agrees JEE is tough. It’s impressive to have such a deep understanding at a young age. But let me ask you, which do you think is tougher, getting into Google/Facebook or IIT?'

Awkward silence

I replayed her words in my mind. Was that a slight dig? 🤔

If my heart stopped beating, would I have enough energy to walk out into the other room 20 ft away before I passed out and died?

Sister: 'Really? Huh! Do you know how tough it is to give exams for nearly a month? And if you don’t get over 95%, you won’t get into a good college.'

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

Me: 'Look, if you want to get into the best DU colleges, the board exam is the toughest. If you want IIT, then JEE is the toughest. If you aim for IAS/IPS, CSE is the toughest. For PSUs or IITs for Masters, Gate is the toughest. For foreign universities, GRE/GMAT is the toughest. For AIIMS, it’s the toughest. For becoming a CA, that’s the toughest for you. Want to join the Indian Forces? NDA/CDS is the toughest. The same goes for SSC-CGL/CHSL/IBPS exams.

My ex moved on so fast. How can I overcome the pain?

Sister: 'How can you compare? They serve different purposes and happen at different stages.'

"Sister: 'Gate is easy,' said my sister who scored well in JEE Mains and Advanced but wasn’t happy with her board marks (around 94%, but she didn’t think it was good enough!).

Me: 'Yes, it is,' I agreed.

If my lovely sister sleeps with my boyfriend, what should I do about her?

Me: 'Exactly! The same applies to Gate. When people say Gate is tough, they usually mean it’s tough for PSUs. Gate questions might be easier, but the competition is fierce due to limited seats.'

Sister: 'No way, it’s not even relevant to compare them.'

Me: 'Now, if Google had a common exam to recruit, which would be tougher: JEE or the Google exam?'

What are some signs that someone may be being stalked by an organization or secret society? How can they find out for sure?

Sister: 'Hmm, yes. The same goes for entrepreneurship or starting a business, right? They’re also tough if you want to succeed.'

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

Me: 'So that means it's the toughest exam?'

Should parents be allowed to bring children into R-rated movies? What are the potential consequences of doing so?

Sister (showing me a video): 'Then why is this guy talking nonsense? Everyone knows JEE is tougher.'

Me: 'Exactly.'

Me: 'I mean, are you comparing the failure rates, syllabus, depth of understanding, question difficulty, or the range of topics covered?'

What do women talk about mostly(among themselves)?

Me: 'Okay, but why are you so obsessed with comparing these exams? What are you comparing them on?'

Sister: 'Nothing. But what’s wrong with admitting JEE is the toughest exam?'

Cricket isn’t the only tough game; the Olympics, Para Olympics, Tennis, Golf, etc., are equally tough. It might just be over-hyped.'

Why do men love to stink/being smelly?

Sister: 'What parameters? (Dodged the question)'

Sister: 'Okay, but...'

She stared at me for about 10-15 seconds, then went back to watching the video.

Why do narcissists keep calling on the phone after years of separation?

After a minute...

Me: 'Was that a statement or a question?'

Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'

Nothing is inherently tougher or easier; it all depends on what you’re aiming for. 💪😌"

Me: 'Exactly! What's the point of comparing different exams? What are you trying to say?'
