To That Extent

Hi,


I’m asking the usage of ‘to that extent’.

Suppose my friend says: The English test was very difficult.

I disagree. I think the test is not so difficult. Is it understandable to say the following sentence?

The difficulty of the test is not to that extent.


Thanks in advance.

I don't think many people nowadays use the phrase 'to that extent'.

However, It is acceptable if you move the words around a little:


''The English test was very difficult.''

''I disagree. The test was not difficult to that extent.''
