What am i doing wrong when cooking rice on the stovetop?

Hi everyone, i love white rice but i keep running into an issue. When its done the top is perfect but 1/4 to almost half of the pot is mushy :/.

Ill go through the steps i take so maybe theres a better picture. I use a pretty standard medium sized pots.

-wash rice -put the directed amount of water to rice ratio (i have also tried adding less or more water) -let it cook with top on until the top of the rice absorbs the water(idk if that makes sense) -leave the top on for about 3 mins after taking it off the burning. (Also tried this without the top on to see but nothing changed) -fluff with fork

I genuinely have no idea what im doing wrong!
