Abstract
Mathematics is a very important subject to learn in school and in everyday life (you know this from dealing with your pocket money or calculating how many days of school are left until the vacations). For some kids, it comes very easily – they just get math and enjoy it. But for some kids, learning math is very difficult, and even if they are given extra help, they find it hard to “get it.” For example, an arithmetic problem such as 2 + 2 can be remembered from memory very easily for some children; but, for others, this problem requires a lot of hard work. At the same time, these children can be very good in other classes for which they do not need math.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
