Is it realistic to get over 330 on GRE?

As far as I understand, there is a reasonably limited combination of quant and verbal scores that could get one in 330+ score band - 160 in one section and 170 in another section (and every score in between).
There is no question that you need to get a harder second section for both quant and verbal.
Based on your experience or knowledge of the GRE scoring system, can anyone share your opinion: suppose a test-taker made only a couple of mistakes in the first easier quant section and got the harder second section.
How many mistakes can one make and still get 160-165 quant score?

Gre does nbot work that way.
The first section is always on the medium range.
Do, what is crucial is the number of questions you answer correctly. read this
If you have just two mistakes the next section will be hard

Thanks. So the first section is medium then. If one gets 2 mistakes or less, then how many mistakes onу can make to still get a score above 160? Since there is a bonus for getting the hard section, then one can even make a couple of mistakes or so?
