Is GATE tougher than JEE?

Me: 'Exactly.'

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

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

Can you share any "backstage pass" experiences you have had at concerts?

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

Sister: 'Okay, but...'

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

What are the major security challenges facing India, both domestically and internationally, and how does the government address them?

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

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

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

Why does my dog keep licking at her privates now? She is 7 years old and has barely started licking there. The vet said she’s fine but she keeps doing that.

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

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

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

Why do many women wear sleeveless shirts, more so than men?

"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!).

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

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

What qualities do single women typically look for in a man? Is it a common preference for women to want a man who earns more than they do?

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.'

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

How did the trans issue metastasize within just a decade from being a question of kindness and tolerance to a tiny minority to convulsing a whole society?

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

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

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

Why do some young mothers trick a guy into believing that they're pregnant and it's their child when years later they find out that it's not even theirs should he still pay child support or not?

Sister: 'What parameters? (Dodged the 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?'

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.

My girlfriend told me that she wants to move in with me. I have my own apartment and I like my peace and quiet, but I also love her. We've been together for a year now. What should I do?

Awkward silence

After a minute...

Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'

When have you been in an accident where the other person involved blatantly lied to the police about what transpired?

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

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