Typical rating progression pace?

I got to 700 fairly quickly, a couple of months or so.

20 years later, I still can't get past 740.

I think if you have a pro coach or proper chess practice according to your level then for reaching 2000 1 year is more than enough

See i searched this up because I just reached 600 after 3 months and I wanted to see how I was doing. Apparently not so well 😭

Oh so being 1000 stuck for a year meaning that I suck. Nice...

This is from a dedicated professional at chess.

Current rating in blitz, 2227, peak rating, 2312.

I started a month before I turned 13. I'm exactly 14 and 2 months old AS OF TODAY.

460(Starting rating) I HAVE NEVER EVER Played chess, I didn't know how the pieces moved. Still had trouble with castling, the knight, an en passant.

460-700: 1 day

700-900: little less than half a month

900-1100:less than half a month.

1100-1200: one week.

1200-1300: 1month.

1300-1550: 6 hours.

1550-1700:3 months

At this point, in February 2024. I quit chess cuz I got "Banned by mistake." So I appealed to be unbanned. Which the process took until Late-June

So how about this. February-Late-June. 
NOT ONE CHESS GAME PLAYED.

1700-1800, a and half a month.

1800-2000:6 days

2000-2100: 3 weeks

2100-2200: 2 and a half months.

2200-2300: half a week.

2300-2400: Estimated 1 month

2400-2500: 3 months

2500-2700: 6 months

2700-2800: Hope I get there?

So in conclusion 2312 blitz in 10 months.

For adults, it will probably take 2 years.

Guys, it takes some people to get to 1100, where I am. I did not know how pieces moved in june of this year, and my ELO was 100. I have no clue how you guys won games without understanding how a piece moves. And considering the fact that so many people take many years to achieve a simple
"high-beginner" level of 1000-1200. I feel like most people can't possibly achieve these goals you are all setting, like the vast majority of my opponents have had multiple year old accounts

My guy, your account is 500 elo and your accuracy is no better than a 1000

Brock-the-boy

But it does point out exactly how bad some of these standards are, clearly you are joking about being a fide master, but some times it feels like the people in the chess community hold everybody to an unrealistic standard for improvement

In fairness, I was somewhat obsessive with chess in the beginning, watching youtube videos virtually every other night in my evenings after work, whilst working away from home. I probably drilled 10k tactics in that first year too. That's a huge help.

Chess is a hard game if you really want to get good at it.

Scientists estimate that a professional chess player has learned for about 50,000 hours (btw really like any other task you want to master) and has learned around 50,000 chess patterns in this time. As in, really learned. Its in their blood, so to speak.

The idea that you can force this is absurd.

And you need a young mind for really mastering it, too.

Very much like for example mathematicians.
