"The average adult USCF tournament player is rated about 1450. Many beginners start out with ratings of 1000 or so, with scholastic players starting out at around 600. The average of all USCF players is about 1100. In the US, if your rating gets up to 2000, you get your first professional title: Expert. Mastersare those rated 2200 or higher. A Grandmaster would normally be rated about 2500. (See the next section, which explains International Titles.) The highest rated players in the world on the FIDE system have ratings of about 2800. So, to get a rating, contact your national organization and find out when they have rated events that are open to new players."

Consider this is live standard play rankings! Your online play tends to boost 100-400 points more than what your live play actually is.
