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

Sister: 'Okay, but...'

Awkward silence

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

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

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

Is Tinder the best dating app?

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

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

Do women lack the mental strength to succeed at STEM? There seems to be few women at STEM and more women leave STEM after a time of working at it. How can it be just sexism if women aren't banned from entering?

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

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

Are there legal obligations to report the known whereabouts of a missing person that doesn’t want to be found?

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

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

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

How do you write a letter to your uncle who sent you money for your birthday outfit?

Me: 'Exactly.'

After a minute...

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

What are the beliefs of those who think climate change is a conspiracy theory? What do they predict will happen if we do not address it?

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

Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'

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

Why is (n-1)(n+1)=n^2-1?

Do married men know when their wives are having affairs?

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

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: '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.'

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