I am 11 years old. My rating is 1102. I am very hard working. I practice six hours a day . Specially skilled in tactics . How much time will it take me to cross 1500. My coach's rating is around 2150

It's different for everyone. Also 6 hours is a lot, but it depends on what you practice, how you practice, etc.

Also it's common to not improve for many months, then suddenly improve 100 or more points.

 

Anyway, to answer your question, it's possible for you to reach 1500 in less than 1 year, but that would be very uncommon. Improving 100 rating points per year is not bad. My advice would be to plan on that, so if you do it faster, then you will be happy. If you plan on setting a world record and fail you'll be sad.

OTB or online? Because if you have a few good tournaments OTB, your rating can shoot up drastically. For example, here I am sitting at 1300-1400 online while my OTB rating is 1700 USCF. It all depends, really. Ironically, I am doing better without a coach than when I had one.

For what its worth, I am a working guy, with little time to give on training and stuff. Did some tactics watched youtube vids, went from 800 on chess.com when I joined to 1500 in 1.2 yeas.

 

Have stayed in that range ever since though, got a peak of 1564 in blitz a few months after that. Since then yo-yoing in between 1500 and 1400.

 

So if you are practicising and have a coach and are starting 300 points higher than the 800 I did, you should get there much sooner.

His tactics are only in the 400s because he’s basically only done five tactics that’s why.

Because I don't do tactics on chess.com I do tactics on chess tempo

And if you think you are the boss here why not play a match

Avatar of cellomaster8
Ok. I would say it might take you anywhere from 1 year to 3-4 years to get to 1500
Avatar of Ritobroto100

what about the match.

I am not the boss. I am literally at 1300-1400 here. I am just annoying sometimes. Or a lot of times

Don't take it seriously mate

You're young, have a coach, and are practicing 6 hours a day. Assuming you are practicing properly, you could do it in half a year imo
