Is GATE tougher than JEE?

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

Awkward silence

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

While wearing high heels and walking heel to toe, when the toe box hit the floor there is a noise. How do I keep the noise just for the heel?

Me: 'Exactly.'

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

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.

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

Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'

Why does my 5-year-old daughter keep repeating the words 'they will come for us, they will find us and touch us'? I'm quite scared.

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

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

Why do flat Earthers exist? Why can’t I see the Sun at night? Is it because Earth is not flat?

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

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

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: '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.'

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

In Italy, how do people greet each other when they meet for the first time (e.g., on the street)? What's a good response to that greeting if you're not from Italy or don't speak Italian fluently yet?

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

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: '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?'

Can ringing in the ears be a sign of spiritual awakening?

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

Sister: 'Okay, but...'

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

I see ugly guys dating gorgeous, "hot" women all the time. I, too, am not very attractive but I'm not doing well with the ladies. What's their secret?

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

After a minute...

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

What causes you to be tired all the time and major headaches?

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

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