Methodology: Engineering

What it measures

Tests engineering knowledge and understanding, including various engineering disciplines, design principles, problem-solving approaches, and engineering applications. Queries cover mechanical, electrical, civil, and other engineering domains.

Scoring & Criteria

Returns score 1.0 if the extracted answer exactly matches the expected answer letter (after normalization), otherwise 0.0. The system prompt requests answers in `<answer>X</answer>` format where X is a letter from the provided choices (A, B, C, D, etc.). The grader normalizes for models that include the full choice text instead of just the letter, or that violate the answer tag format from the system prompt. Only one answer is correct.

Evaluation Type: Multiple Choice

Grades multiple choice responses by exact string matching with normalization.

Example Question

A. 0 degrees
B. -90 degrees
C. -180 degrees
D. -270 degrees
E. 45 degrees
Answer:
C
