Is GATE tougher than JEE?

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?'

Is it common for Americans to feel "trapped" due to the size and distance of their country from other countries/continents? Is this feeling an exaggeration or a reality?

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

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

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

What legal actions can be taken if a neighbor's unleashed dog causes harm or injury?

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?'

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?'

Fishing is a popular pastime on many US beaches. What is a type of saltwater fish commonly caught from piers or by wading (flounder, redfish, etc.)?

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

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

Awkward silence

Why were the Japanese soldiers in WW II so hesitant to surrender in battle?

Me: 'Exactly.'

"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!).

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

How would you spank me if I had been sent home from a school camp because of my poor behavior?

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

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?'

I just cannot wake up early, even if I sleep on time. What should I do?

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.'

Sister: 'Okay, but...'

What's your photograph of the day 1097?

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

I'm British and I hate my glasses. Are prescription glasses better in New York City?

Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'

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

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

Why do people think Mirko is boring in My Hero Academia?

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

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