What it measures
197,243 regional academic, professional, and licensing exam questions collected natively in 44 languages (not translated from English).
Reading the measurement
Accuracy is only part of the picture. Inspect unsupported answers, abstentions, language coverage and the evidence available to the model. A confident response can still be wrong, and a broad average can hide a specialist gap.

Original-language instructions; INCLUDE · source dataset-card comparison. Results retain their published native scale and task setting.
Where this fits in an evaluation suite
Read accuracy together with error and abstention rates. Domain averages can hide language gaps, specialist failures, and poorly calibrated confidence.
Start with a capability hypothesis, then choose a second test with a different failure mode. Keep the checkpoint, reasoning effort, agent tools, sampling policy, and scoring procedure fixed when measuring a training intervention. Record failures and missing outputs in the denominator.
A reproducible comparison
Original-language instructions; INCLUDE · source dataset-card comparison. Results retain their published native scale and task setting.
Publish the exact run configuration, item coverage, score units, and available uncertainty. If a source supplies only an aggregate or a single run, preserve that limit. A new model name or a rounded score alone does not establish a capability improvement.
