Is encg really better than "la fac" ?

Hey so I really need a serious advice because I'm so confused, I got my bac last year with a good grade and I wanted to join ENCG but unfortunately I couldn't pass the exam, and idk how I just found out myself f la fac, Wich was really disappointing but I still had hope because people told me that it's really the same there is not much difference, but now I feel like I'm wasting my time and I'm considering retaking the ENCG exam this year since I still have a seconde chance and if I really managed to pass it. Is it really a good idea even tho I wasted this entire year of my life doing nothing, is it really worth it ? If someone here from ENCG please tell me ur honest opinion idk what to believe in anymore.
