Is GATE tougher than JEE?

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.'

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

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

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

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

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

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

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

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

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

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

"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!).

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

Me: 'Exactly.'

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

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

Do you think that drug addiction is a symptom of larger societal ills? What is it about our culture that leaves so many feeling like they're inadequate, trying any ill to find a cure?

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: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'

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

How do I stop having work crushes because I only keep getting disappointed almost every day as I keep seeing they don’t like me back and won’t ever ask me out?

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

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.

California schools are very liberal. Do you think California schools are teaching students to hate Republican views (views on: God, guns, prayer, secure borders, etc.)?

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

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