Of course, the ChessMaster rating is not an official rating like those given by FIDE or national federations.
Thanks Mr. Patzer for your clear explanation.
To the original poster: Did you do that ratings exam in the Chessmaster intermediate tutorial....and is this how you got that rating? I don't tihnk its very accurate. I did the same thing and got a rating around 1900 I think....which is ridiculous....WAY off. I'm not even close to being a 1900 player, and find it hard to beat most of the personalities on chessmaster at the 1300 level.
What are the diferent classes of players and associated ratings.
I have the Chess Master 9000 computer game and I got a Rating of 2410.
What is that?
