    It totally depends upon the candidate's acadmic strengths and weaknesses that which one would be easier for them . If the candidates prefers to go for less geometrical problems, then GMAT would be a wiser choice as the former has less geometrical problems than GRE. however, if the candidates prefers to go for less quantitatively tricky section then , GRE should be their target examination. The verbal and writing sections would be hard nuts in GRE examination than in GMAT Examination. 

    All these factors should be enough for you to decide that which one is easier for you to appear in . Both the examinations are widely accepted by alm

    GMAT test might be easy for those who prefer logical problems instead of Geometry as there are more Geometry questions in the GRE. In addition, Quantitative section is harder in GMAT in comparison to GRE. Verbal section in the GRE can be difficult for non native English speakers. Candidates can go back and forth in the GRE test, whereas in GMAT one doesn't have freedom to save and return to each section during exam. Decision to choose a test for studying abroad depends on various factors such as course requirement, university requirements, current level of preparation, comfort level with the exam pattern, etc.

GRE is not mandatory for all MS programs abroad. Many universities have made it optional or waived the requirement. Some top universities in US and Canada often still require or recommend it for admission.
