Which is harder: LSAT, MCAT, GMAT, GRE, other?
 

For those who have taken any (or all) of these exams, which would you consider to be the most difficult? Obviously a tough question since they test different things, particularly the MCAT, but opinions would be interesting nonetheless.

MCAT vs. LSAT has been discussed before on law school sites I frequent, but those discussions seem likely to be biased (although I got the impression most considered the MCAT more challenging even there).

I've taken the LSAT and know a little about the MCAT. The other two I know little about and may or may not be approprately included in the discussion.

The GRE is a glorified SAT and not that difficult IMO. I have not studied for nor thought about taking the others.

MCAT by far. The rest are just general intelligence/aptitude tests like the SAT; you actually have to know stuff for the MCAT.

The ARE is very difficult, and deserves some appreciation.

That test was a f'ing bitch. I've crushed standardized tests all my life and I don't remember thinking any of the questions were easy.

I've taken the MCAT, LSAT, and GRE. I did about the same on each of them. The MCAT required the most studying and would certainly be hardest for someone coming in cold. The science questions aren't hard, but you need a pretty good grasp of the fundamentals in a number of areas (bio, chem, ochem, physics). I think the logic-type problems on the LSAT were a bit harder then those on the GRE. GMAT, meh.

I don't actually remember which was harder. But based on my scores, the GRE was much easier than the LSAT. Didn't take the others. The GRE Engineering exam was surprisingly difficult, though.

This is all second hand as I've only taken the LSAT but I think the order would be

MCAT > LSAT > GMAT > GRE.

The ARE isn't similar to these at all, it's a professional licence exam (similar to the BAR).
