Me: 'Exactly! What's the point of comparing different exams? What are you trying to say?'
She stared at me for about 10-15 seconds, then went back to watching the video.
Sister: 'Hmm, yes. The same goes for entrepreneurship or starting a business, right? They’re also tough if you want to succeed.'

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