I also kinda went into brainlock during the second quant section and had a mini meltdown after spending wayyyyyy too much time on a problem and realizing I had like 10 minutes to answer the final 15 questions, which is why I'd like to retake it and pump up the quant score.
Its been several years since I took it, but I don't think there was any difficult math? Like nothing harder than algebra 2 IIRC? But then again, I took it right out of college and still solve systems of equations on occasion. I also do remember taking several minutes on a few of them - it wasn't "hard" in the sense that I didn't have the ability, but some did take some hard planning/thinking. But then the next would be quick and cancel out the time penalty.
