What is BLUEX v2?
Although Large Language Models (LLMs) excel in many tasks, their assessment in Portuguese has received less attention, particularly for open-ended, discursive tasks that demand deeper reasoning and generation capabilities. While the original BLUEX benchmark addressed the scarcity of Portuguese evaluation datasets through multiple-choice questions from Brazilian university entrance exams, it did not cover the more challenging second-phase examinations, which require free-form written responses. In this work, we introduce BLUEX v2, a benchmark derived from the second-phase entrance exams of Brazil's two leading universities: UNICAMP (Comvest) and USP (Fuvest), spanning exam years 2022-2025. Our dataset comprises 395 questions unfolding into 919 graded subquestions, with 55.7% of questions containing associated images. Each question is annotated with subject area, official reference answers, LLM-generated rubric criteria, and six cognitive capability tags. We evaluate 21 state-of-the-art LLMs using an LLM-as-a-judge protocol. Results reveal a 4.92-point performance spread across models (4.18-9.10 on a 0-10 scale), with Mathematical Reasoning and Image Understanding emerging as the hardest capability dimensions. The dataset, evaluation code, and model outputs are publicly available at https://anonymous.4open.science/r/BLUEXv2.
Tier C
Niche: a handful of models scored, or built by an RL vendor.
How much stands behind a tier: usage, who backs it, a confirmed line from its own site or paper, and a clear read on X. High with three of the four, medium with two, low otherwise.
- 10 models scored

How we got to tier C
- Adoption: 10 models scored. Tier C.
- Not yet read on X.
- In curated RL directories: 1 point, a floor of none.
- Not yet confirmed by a line from its own site or paper.
A clear view on X moves a tier one step up or down; most entries don't move. How tiers work.
Not on the map yet: no line from its own site or paper places it in a domain.
