no way, i have played chess for 4 years and i am not even close to GM, i would say however i am close to or am FM level though.

I've played for 10 years

but 7 of those were me stuck at 800 uscf

2 of those were me not even playing chess

and 1 was me actually getting back into it and making this account

relatable

Lol well this is my second year(on the site and playing chess in general), and I only played competitively for 18 months...

But becoming a GM is impossible in 5 years, even for the most brilliant chess, minds, but I tell you what if you work hard you can become a CM,NM or LM or FM and then can do well.But even so if you do this that means you will have to work hard and make some serious breakthroughs and more importantly you will have to give up your life for chess. And though I  like chess I don't think it is all that worth it to spend all your time on it, but it is still very nice to play!

Haha, I was looking at all these comments and reconsidered myself being a good chess player, lol. I think if you put the effort into chess, you can do it. In like 3 months I came from around 300 I came to around 1000 blitz, and I'm working on bullet, and I thought it would take a couple of years to become FM or GM or something, right? Okay, well I feel like it depends on the amount of time and effort you put in everyday, I just do this cause I find it fun.
