Is GATE tougher than JEE?

Me: 'Exactly.'

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

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

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

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?'

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?'

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

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

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

"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? 🤔

What does it mean if I had a dream about my mom who passed 12 years ago waking up from her coma and asking for my dad? I have never had a dreams about her since she has been gone.

Awkward silence

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

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

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

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

I'm a 28-year-old guy who has never been in a relationship, nor can I seem to find someone who wants to be in one with me. Why do I feel like a freak?

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.

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

After a minute...

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

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

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

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

Sister: 'Okay, but...'
