Is GATE tougher than JEE?

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.'

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

Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'

What does it mean when I have a dream where my friend died? I had this dream last night where one of my friends died in a shootout and I woke up crying.

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.

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

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

I feel like my boyfriend doesn't love me. Why?

Sister: 'Okay, but...'

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

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?'

Why are Korean female leads so angry all the time?

Me: 'Exactly.'

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

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

Have you ever had a scary dream about a loved one or friend soon after their death?

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

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

The world of the Harry Potter series is usually considered bad worldbuilding. What are some examples of actually good worldbuilding in the books/movies?

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

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

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

What made you recently say to yourself, “Wait. Really?”

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

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

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

Why do people still think Michael Jackson was guilty?

Awkward silence

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

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

What is your review of House of the Dragon, season 2, episode 8, "The Queen Who Ever Was"?

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

After a minute...

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

What are the types of values?

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