Is GATE tougher than JEE?

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.

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

After a minute...

Can you share any "backstage pass" experiences you have had at concerts?

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

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

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

Why am I not getting any atheists to debate with? Are they scared?

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

Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'

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

Has a cop ever said something to you which was completely unexpected?

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

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

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.'

Which city should one visit between Nice and Cannes? Why?

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

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

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

Sister: 'Okay, but...'

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.'

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

Why am I not attracted to masculine men? Why do I like more feminine attributes on a man?

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

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

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

What ended your relationship with your best friend?

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

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

"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!).

How should one handle a situation where they suspect their partner of cheating, but their partner denies it and claims it is all in their head?

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

Me: 'Exactly.'

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?'

How do women feel when they are in love?

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