Advik Tilekar has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 15.70, set at Race the Clock MN 2025, puts him in the top 26.8% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 14,658th in the United States. Across 6 competitions since October 2024, he has put 56 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 72% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 7 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 30.80 in October 2024 to 15.70, a 49% improvement. Advik has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
