NM and CM are possible. Even FM and IM can be reached with dedication. GM is hard for anyone, but not impossible. Some 20-year-olds managed to get the GM title in under 10 years. It's possible, but NM, CM, and FM are the easiest.
Thanks for giving your time I appreciate😊
How do I become a GM in less than 3 weeks? My ELO is around 1200 and I'm on a deadline. I need to get it done before the end of April and am willing to devote 30 minutes a day. Thank you!

1) How to improve tactical skills at chess?
Solve lots of puzzles. I can be more specific depending on your goals - are you trying to structure your thinking, or are you trying to improve your pattern recognition?

If I'd be your new student what we could do together to improve my chess and why do you think it'd be effective?
It would be good to get to know you over a call! You can tell me about your chess history and goals - we can work from there. Game analysis is a good place to start!

Master Logoczar is literally one of the nicest people in chess and it's a real pleasure to work with him on our award winning chessable courses (and coming Patreon!) His enthusiasm and teaching approach are phenomenal -- I highly recommend.
