3×3 · top 9.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since May 2022 · 2022LAKH01
Aamina Lakha has been competing for 4 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.70, set at Kendeda Kubing A 2023, puts her in the top 9.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5,203rd in the United States. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since May 2022, she has put 163 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 51% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside her 5 DNFs. Her 3×3 best has come down from 19.17 in May 2022 to 10.70, a 44% improvement. Aamina has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% of everyone who has ever competed.

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
