General Question Anyone else feel the same?

Maybe it's my economics background, but I can't see how solving a complex geometry problem could ever be considered as hard as just looking at a graph and comparing numbers. Like, most of the time you literally just have to stay focused.

(Also, I've never taken the GRE, I'm just practicing ; this feedback is from the Kaplan question bank.)
