MathArena - APEX 2025: leaderboard

Twelve very hard problems collected from 2025 mathematics competitions, half from final answer contests and half rewritten from proof based ones so a single answer can be checked. They were kept only if four frontier models failed every attempt when the set was built in August 2025. Each model makes repeated attempts, only the final answer is checked, and accuracy is the share of attempts solved, higher is better.

Metric: Accuracy (%). Source: matharena.ai. Source: benchmarklist.com. Saturation forecast: Around January 2027. 48 models tracked.
