Is GATE tougher than JEE?

Awkward silence

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

How has your life changed for the past 10 years? Can you share your #10year challenge? Is your life better, worse, or still hopeful?

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

After a minute...

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

What is one thing you've learned from life?

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.'

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

Relocating to Sweden to save money. I got a job offer of 47000SEK before tax, visas sponsored for my wife & my mother (with a laryngectomy). My wife, a general medicine graduate, wants to specialize in Sweden. Can we live well and save 4000€ monthly?

Sister: 'Okay, but...'

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

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

Is the Democrat party connected with organized crime in America?

Me: 'Exactly.'

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

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

If you were to bet, will Canada bend over to Trump's America demands or remain inflexible until the last day of his Presidency on January 20, 2029? Will America or Canada win this geopolitical arm-wrestling? I'm rooting for America.

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

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.'

Why does everyone hate Anthony Joshua so much? I get that he isn’t the best heavyweight boxer ever but people claim he’s a no skill fighter but he has an Olympic gold medal, a world championship, and beat Klitschko, a dominant force in boxing

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.'

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

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

How do you explain the involvement of a mainland Chinese visitor, her local relative, and a 65-year-old friend of the latter in the suspected money laundering case seized by Hong Kong police?

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?'

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?'

Beautiful European women were killed by inquisition but Russia was not Catholic. Is this the reason for a drastic difference explaining why Russian women are the prettiest?

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?'

"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!).

My dog is 2 weeks old. He's not eating, moving and always sleeping and I can't take him to a vet. What should I do?

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

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