Chess.com Rapid is around USCF quick

Sort:

I was checking my USCF rating the other day and I notices it was very close to my chess.com rapid. My USCF is 866 and my chess.com rapid is 876.

Here's my USCF if you don't believe me http://www.uschess.org/msa/MbrDtlTnmtHst.php?30081270

Why wouldn’t I believe you!

Now if you said your rapid was 300 and your regular was 2600…. yeah I’d probably doubt that.

Yes, this is fairly close for most players - maybe online slightly higher depending on how much they play OTB USCF Quick Swiss though wink.png

My local chess club opened a month or so back, but we haven't gotten back to rated events yet because of low turnout ever since the pandemic (oof). Still wear masks for the pandemic though (even though I've been vaccinated for months now), but I'll be glad when we finally reach herd immunity and rated chess events return happy.png

My rapid here was higher than my USCF quick, which always seems well below my USCF standard, until I spent the better part of a year playing mostly Arena. Dropped my rapid about 200. Now both ratings are mid-1700s.
