I haven't really looked at any modern maths papers. When I sat my Higher (Scottish A-Level) maths in the mid-80's you were allowed a blunt pencil and if you were lucky, a ruler.
About 6 years ago I decided to return to university and take a software engineering degree. I was shocked by the standard of the maths from those who had just left school.
In fact it was/is on of the biggest problems facing the university. In 4 out of the 5 years of the degree there were always maths based classes, because of this the drop out rate was high.
