What is USAMO 2026?

USAMO 2026 is a benchmark for hard reasoning in science, technology, engineering and math. It was built to compare language models on a clearly defined set of tasks under the same grading rules, so scores are directly comparable between models.

What does it test?

USAMO 2026 measures hard reasoning in science, technology, engineering and math. In detail, it checks:

  • graduate- and expert-level questions in science and math
  • multi-step derivations where each step must be correct
  • problems written to defeat memorisation (novel or recent exam problems)
  • correct use of formulas, units and logical inference

How to read the score

The score is competition points on the organiser's official scale (e.g. a 42-point olympiad-style test). More points is better.
