i read somewhere in news that some top business schools may waive the gmat for the people who hold cfa ..so is cfa comparatively easier compared to getting a score of 750 plus in gmat?

I think that the CFA requires, on average, something like 900+ hours of study (for all three levels).
Seems like it would probably be easier to dedicate just a fraction of that time to GMAT prep; I've known folks who've gotten 750 plus with 60 hours or less of study time...

So, you're weak at math but want to do an MBA? That's a bit odd.
I'd suggest putting time in to study for the GMAT, the quant section is really not that difficult, and many GMAT-takers, even those who haven't touched math in years find that just a bit of studying and refresh goes a long way.

Way, way easier - by an order of magnitude. CFA level one is supported by year-long masters programmes, let alone the next two levels.

They are equally good. It would suffer from school to school.
