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.'

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

Awkward silence

How was your JEE Mains 2024 April attempt?

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

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

Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'

Is Jesus God almighty?

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

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

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

I have a bad reputation and need help. What should I do?

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.

Me: 'Exactly.'

My boyfriend always verbally abuse me and makes me cry. If I try to tell him how hurt I was, he says to me he loves me and can't hurt me but always abuse me. Why?

After a minute...

Me: 'Was that a statement or a 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?'

How come I can't stay sober?

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

Sister: 'Okay, but...'

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

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

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

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

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

What are the main issues that have historically and currently divided Republicans and Democrats?

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.'

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

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

Do girls ever miss their first love?

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.'

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

Is parental involvement in their daughters' marriages beneficial? Why or why not?

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

"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!).
