how difficult is it to take 5 or 6 multiple choice/short answer tests per year for three years, as opposed to writing a 400-page peer-reviewed research document?

It totally depends on the school/setting/prof, but if you have no training in the area, it can be very hard. Don't kid yourself.

Philosophy is generally "hard" at a graduate level. The tone of your post suggests you think it's easy... not sure why you'd think that's the case.
