AIME

Also called AIME 2024, AIME 2025, American Invitational Mathematics Examination.

AIME, the American Invitational Mathematics Examination, is a US high-school mathematics competition whose problems, each with an integer answer, are widely used as a benchmark for reasoning models, usually identified by year, as in AIME 2024 or AIME 2025.

Description

Each exam has only 15 problems, so scores are typically averaged over many sampled attempts and vary noticeably between runs. A new exam each year provides problems written after many models' training data was collected, which limits contamination.
