How to read this Mercor evaluation
We captured Mercor's SUPERChem results on October 15, 2026. The table preserves 33 published configurations, their source identifiers, reasoning settings, and disclosed pass@1 values. These are results from Mercor's evaluation setup; we did not rerun them.
This dated source table is display only and does not enter overall or category rankings. Source configurations retain their external identity, including Pro descriptors and different effort settings.
The headline is the source page's selected Pass@1 metric. The task set, harness, tools, and grader belong to this Mercor run and may differ from another evaluator's results.
The row labels retain published error margins and sample counts when supplied. Missing margins and counts remain unreported; a sample count is not used to reconstruct a task denominator. Except where the dedicated source defines an interval, the confidence level is unreported. Equal displayed scores and overlapping margins do not establish statistical ties. Capture time does not establish individual evaluation dates.
The general methodology lists programmatic multiple-choice answer extraction and a judge of None. Its run-count label is k = 3. The linked result page takes precedence where its setup differs, as noted above.
Snapshot
The published SUPERChem (Mercor) snapshot places GPT-6 Astra first at 80.30%. The third row is 2.50 points behind. The broader top-10 range is 7.50 points, so many of the published results sit in a relatively narrow band.
33 configurations are shown for SUPERChem (Mercor). The benchmark falls in the Knowledge category. We keep external benchmark mirrors separate from the weighted global scoring system, so these results remain source-specific evidence. SUPERChem (Mercor) is currently displayed for reference but excluded from the scoring formula, so it does not directly affect overall rankings.
