I am 2200 above in 30 min rapid. What will be my fide rating?
@goldenbeer, I checked you and i both have similar rapid rating but you lost to an NM in rapid game recently. So, is it you are certainly less skilled than an NM. But are you certainly above 2000 fide
Hi @IswarPrasadDeuri I have to agree with @goldenbeer in saying that you will need to play more games. In my personal opinion I think that one needs to play 50-75 rated Rapid games to have a solid and reliable rating on the site. This should be finished in 6 months to a year. The more games you play the better. 6 games is a bit early to truly identify your skills as it could be a series of weak opponents you played against who are having a bad day, or perhaps you are just on a temporary streak of winning.
Once you've played 50-75 rated rapid games, check out this site to get a ROUGH idea of where you stand in FIDE ratings.
Hope this helps and good luck with your chess!
CM, FM, IM or GM relate to classical time control 90|30.
That requires deeper calculation and insight and also stamina to keep concentrated for hours.
2200 rapid is a good start though.
I think here if you have 2200 rapid (truly) it should be worth 2300 fide, because here rapid pool is infested with a lot of cheaters. I think the link provided above to show the strength might be a bit old, maps 2200 rapid of chess.com to 2200 fide. I believe it is much stronger right now, since the pool is getting tougher and tougher. E.g. my lichess rapid is closer to 2450 (and it only goes up, since I win 80% of my games there), then maps this to 2300 fide.
It is interesting to see that 2200 rapid of chesscom according to the above link is more valuable than 2200 and even 2300 blitz. I had a same feeling.
Can i become FM, IM or GM.
A FIDE rating is harder to get than USCF or Chess.com. If you can keep your rapid rating at 2200 for say, 100 games, you could be anything from 1800 FIDE to 2200 FIDE in over the board slowplay. That's equivalent to a strong club player here in England or the UK. So if you are young, you could become a master.
I think the real problem to improve rating exponentially from this rating is that you have to be extremely lucky even to get a single opponent at my present rating or more at 30 min rapid. You have to be content yourself at playing player around 2000 rapid. And even if you draw one game you lose lots of points. And to win every game is quite a challenge especially with only 30 minutes per side.
@goldenbeer, thx for the reply.

In that case perhaps you should approach specific people with the hope of getting them to agree to a series of rated games with you .... say 4 and see how it goes.
30 min rating is not reliable at all. It’s not clear how big the pool is, it could mean 1500 it could mean 3000, anything could be its translation. Anyways, even with 30 min, you should play enough many games, otherwise it is a fake number.
You can only know your FIDE rating by getting a FIDE rating. Seriously, stop comparing different rating systems

Sometimes it's just about keeping the dream alive.
