GRE Quant difficulty

I took the test yesterday and got an unofficial results of 170Q 159V.

Some people said that ets recently increased their quant difficulty, but I don’t think that’s really the case. Here’s what I felt:

The knowledge required to answer the questions are the same. This is obvious and should be expected.
The complexity (as in the time it takes to answer questions) are roughly the same. I took an official mock test only 5 days before the real test. In both attempts, it took me ~28 minutes to complete the first Q section and ~33 minutes to complete the second, harder Q section. I am confident in math so pressure is not a relevant factor here.
