Want to join the Indian Forces? NDA/CDS is the toughest. The same goes for SSC-CGL/CHSL/IBPS exams.

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

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

Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

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: 'Was that a statement or a question?'

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'

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

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?'

After a minute...

What’s something you did a lot as a kid that you don’t miss now that you’re an adult?

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

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

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

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.'
