Me: 'Was that a statement or a question?'
Nothing is inherently tougher or easier; it all depends on what you’re aiming for. 💪😌"
Sister: 'What parameters? (Dodged the question)'
If an abortion doesn’t affect you, why do people make it a big deal?
Sister: 'No way, it’s not even relevant to compare them.'

After a minute...
Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'
Sister: 'Nothing. But what’s wrong with admitting JEE is the toughest exam?'
While emptying a house, have you ever seen something in it that blew your mind?
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: '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.

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

Why is the covert narcissist actively avoiding me when they see me everyday?
Sister: 'Hmm, yes. The same goes for entrepreneurship or starting a business, right? They’re also tough if you want to succeed.'
Sister: 'Okay, but...'
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: '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: 'Okay, but why are you so obsessed with comparing these exams? What are you comparing them on?'
Sister (showing me a video): 'Then why is this guy talking nonsense? Everyone knows JEE is tougher.'

"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: 'How can you compare? They serve different purposes and happen at different stages.'
Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

Me: 'Yes, it is,' I agreed.
Sister: 'Obviously Google/Facebook.'
