Hi Aswathi, GRE tests aspirants on the basis of Analytical Writing, Verbal Reasoning and Quantitative Reasoning whereas GMAT has an additional section of Integrated Reasoning along with the Verbal, Quantitative, and Analytical sections. The GRE is a lengthy exam in duration that stretches up to 3 hr and 45 mins (almost 4 hrs) whereas GMAT is almost 3 hours long (3 hr 7 mins to be precise).

Now both of these tests are challenging. However, experienced test takers claim that GRE is comparatively easier than GMAT. Although, the other way to look at this is that since GMAT has a challenging Quantitative section, many candidates feel that GMAT is tougher.
