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

Sister: 'Okay, but...'
Me: 'Yes, it is,' I agreed.

Sister: 'How can you compare? They serve different purposes and happen at different stages.'
"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!).
Me: 'Exactly.'

Me: 'So that means it's the toughest exam?'
Sister: 'Obviously, a statement.'

Nothing is inherently tougher or easier; it all depends on what you’re aiming for. 💪😌"
Sister: 'No way, it’s not even relevant to compare them.'
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: '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: 'What parameters? (Dodged the question)'
Sister (showing me a video): 'Then why is this guy talking nonsense? Everyone knows JEE is tougher.'

Me: 'Board exams are easy.'
