Is GATE tougher than JEE?

"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!).

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: 'Obviously, a statement.'

How did you get to be a leftist?

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

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

Me: 'Exactly.'

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

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

Why is pornography still alive and not illegal? Why doesn’t the government do about tricking women into them?

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

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

After a minute...

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

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

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

There's no way Republican Trump won all seven swing states. How was he able to cheat and steal the election?

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: 'Yes, it is,' I agreed.

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

What does it mean when we dream about demons, ghosts, monsters, etc.?

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

Sister: 'Okay, but...'

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

With so much evidence supporting the flat Earth theory, why aren't more resources dedicated to studying it?

Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'
