Is GATE tougher than JEE?

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

After a minute...

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

How was your JEE 2024 result like?

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

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

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

What is your opinion on the belief that one can change their life by changing their thoughts and having a positive mindset?

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

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?'

Awkward silence

The Roman Empire at the time of Christ kept meticulous records. Why then, is there no record of the trial of Jesus?

"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!).

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

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

Do you believe that it is right that one Federal judge can block a President's decisions?

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

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

How many of you have had your parental rights taken away because of lies and no truth whatsoever, and did you prove the lies that were told about you to be false either through drug testing or another way, but still had your rights taken?

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

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

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

Why did I move on so fast from a relationship that was my whole life and I was so attached, I moved on by 2 months?

Me: 'Exactly.'

Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'

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

My stepdaughter’s mom tells her I’m not a real dance teacher, but my stepdaughter has seen me in action. Why does she still question my abilities?

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.

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

Why was Nietzsche against essentialism?

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

Sister: 'Okay, but...'

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.'

If gays can get married, why can't I marry my dog or a cheeseburger?

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

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'
