AIME

A hard high-school math competition repurposed to test mathematical reasoning in models.

Definition

AIME is a difficult United States high-school mathematics competition whose problems span algebra, number theory, combinatorics, and geometry. The AI community uses it as a benchmark for multi-step mathematical reasoning, since solutions require careful work rather than recall. Strong reasoning models now score highly on recent AIME problems, making it a marker of progress on hard reasoning.
