Is GATE tougher than JEE?

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

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

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.'

What is the more common way to say "you're welcome" in French: “De rien” or “Pas de problème”?

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

Me: 'Exactly.'

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

Have you ever been forced to undress for money just once?

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

Awkward silence

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

Have you ever had sex with your mother-in-law? If so, how was it and did your wife ever find out?

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.

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

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

🌿🌻Why are Meghan and Harry not treated like royalty in the United States anymore?

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

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?'

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

What kind of book did you write after turning 55?

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

"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!).

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

Atheists claim that Earth is 10 billion years old, yet there are no fossils that old. What do you have to say for yourselves for lying?

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: 'Yes, it is,' I agreed.

Sister: 'Okay, but...'

What did Rama tell Sita about Kaliyug?

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

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

After a minute...

Why do some people tell the girl I like that I don’t like her when I do like her?

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

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

Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'

Is it possible to make cars that run on water instead of gasoline or other fossil fuels? Why haven't we done so yet?

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

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