Was IMO Q1-Q5 unusually easy this year? The number of people with Q1-Q5 perfectly correct this year seems substantially higher than last year, where Q3 seems to have tripped up a lot of people

There was only one perfect score last year, and there were five this year

2024 seems to have been super hard, 2023 a little easier but still with a lower gold cutoff than 2025. Literally 35 - perfect score on the first five questions - was the gold cutoff for 2025!
