What this score means

On MMMU, GPT-NeoX 1.5B sits at #598 of 600. The leader, GPT-5.2 Max, scores 86.9, so the gap to the top is 48.3 points. The median model in this index scores 70.0, which puts GPT-NeoX 1.5B below the midpoint.

EleutherAI models average 50.0 on this benchmark. GPT-NeoX 1.5B is 11.4 points below that provider line, so it is a weaker result than the average EleutherAI model.

Among small open-weight models, the average is 52.4. GPT-NeoX 1.5B is 13.8 points below that group. This is the more useful comparison if you are shortlisting within the same tier rather than across the whole index.

Read a 38.6 as a relative signal, not an absolute guarantee. Benchmark scores depend on prompt format, evaluation harness and contamination controls. Use this page to narrow the shortlist, then test the model on your own data.
