Could i ever become a grandmaster?
Sort:
Hi, I’m 14 years old, 15 in a few months. My rating on chess.com is around 900-1000. My rating OTB is 1382, so soon 1400. I only have rating in blitz. I usually beat people in my chess club that are around 1100-1400 rated. Do y’all think that I’ll ever be a grandmaster?

If you keep practicing your chances of becoming a gm will increase right now I’d say you have a 5% chance of being a grandmaster
Your chance is less than 5%.
There are 12 year old grandmasters.
Blitz is not chess.
No @Sillygreb zero chance of you becoming a grandmaster. Accept this fact and become happy in life.

You can if you practice right now there is a 5% chance that you will become a GM but there are some 12 year old GM’s
Where does the 5% come from?
There are 2270 grandmasters.
There are 8,200,000 FIDE rated players.
That is 0.03%.

Everything is possible. But don't object for it. If you're a GM, you're very stressed. If you mistake, the whole world knows about it. And you can earn money from it if you're in the top 10. And your chance to be in the top 10, very little. About 0.05%. Your objective should be to be an IM. This is my objective too.
