I joined chess.com in November last year, but only really started playing after Christmas. I quickly got better than many of my friends who used to beat me easily. Now, after 4 months and ~850 rapid games, I've reached a 1700 rapid rating. Is this considered fast? (btw I'm a high school junior)
Compared to me, ur a god, I'm only 1540 on rapid
Of course it's fast. I think this post is a brag. It would better if you bragged openly: "I just wanted to share my progress and how proud and excited I am to learn this game", etc.
