Is GATE tougher than JEE?

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

Sister: 'Okay, but...'

Why can't we send flat Earthers to space and show them the shape of Earth?

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

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

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

Why do I randomly start sweating a lot in public (while waiting in line, in a new class, etc.) then start sweating more because I’m embarrassed that I’m sweating so much? Is this social anxiety?

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

After a minute...

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Why do gun lovers think their right to own a weapon supercedes everyone else's right to be safe and not be shot?

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.'

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 cant I breathe when I sleep on my back, I can breathe if im on my side or stomach but I feel uncomfortable since either my neck is twisted or my back is in pain, im physically healthy and my surroundings are clean so whats the problem?

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

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

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

Awkward silence

Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'

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

Why do gun owners feel the need to defend themselves with deadly weapons? Can they not just talk things out like civilized people do?

Me: 'Exactly.'

Me: 'Was that a statement or a 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!).

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.

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

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