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: 'Board exams are easy.'

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

Why did my crush like me for only two days in a row?

Me: 'Exactly.'

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

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

Does believing in God and Satan cause schizophrenia?

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

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

What is the difference between the terms "Millennials" and "kids"?

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: 'Okay, but...'

"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!).

What was the worst spanking you got growing up?

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?'

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

In what circumstances might a chaperone be appropriate for a medical examination?

Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'

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.'

What was your most memorable experience catching a fraudulent car seller?

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

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

Awkward silence

Is a man over 50 not married no kids a red flag?

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

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

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

What is the recommended approach for creating a film or TV script? Should the script be written first or should the story be developed first? Why?

After a minute...

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

How did a computer scientist such as Geoffrey Hinton manage to win a Nobel Prize in physics when computer science already has its own Nobel Prize equivalent in the Turing Awards?

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

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