GLM 5.3 Flash: score and benchmark evidence
Current published release · · Z.ai
90.4 points · Insufficient coverage for a rank · Stability range 72.1–107.5 points.
Rank follows the point estimate; it does not establish statistically significant superiority. The scale is anchored at mean 100, SD 15 in the frozen calibration cohort, not human IQ or a percentage.
One score summarizes demonstrated capability across published reasoning settings and seven equally weighted domains. Related benchmark variants share a family budget, and influence from one evaluator is capped.

Published benchmark evidence
3 results contribute to this score, from 11 collected results and 3 contributing benchmark families. Counts are not independent sample sizes.
Results, source citations, review decisions and compatible reasoning modes are stored in a versioned relational database. Each publication uses a sealed, checksum-verified export; CSV files are optional exports, not editable scoring inputs. Previous revisions remain available for audit. Collected means a numeric result exists in the database. Used means its source, exact model checkpoint and benchmark protocol have been reviewed and its benchmark has a frozen calibration supported by multiple providers. For each benchmark we select the highest published aggregate across comparable reasoning modes, not necessarily maximum effort, and count it once. More tested settings provide more chances to record a high score; this selection advantage is not corrected by the conditional interval. Developer-reported and sole/unspecified settings remain eligible and disclosed. Unresolved does not mean false or useless: conflicting metrics, unverified citations and unmatched versions stay collected until reconciled.
The score stability range is a 95% bootstrap score interval conditional on frozen calibration and comparable evidence availability. It resamples benchmark families and evaluators and adds a frozen missing-evidence correction. It excludes selection across reasoning settings, selective publication, calibration changes and new domains. It is not a 95% guarantee about true capability or where a future score will land. Sparse or conflicting evidence can widen the range.
Reporting sensitivity: ±27.7 points. Sensitivity to selectively published results. This stress range is not a confidence interval or a probability statement.
