You can't really match a rating to an age.

There are 50-year-old 800-rated players, and there are 12-year-old Grandmasters.

But on average though

What's your 'chess age'? For how long have you been playing?

It depends how much time you devote to chess

I started chess when I was about 10, I've started actually playing more about a year and a half ago

This. An “average” of any age would default to somewhere around 800.

Which means you're not especially talented at Chess. Or maybe my perception is warped due to me being more innately talented than you ... all that certainly makes me sound like a braggart and an a$$, but you had to ask. Paradoxically, I'd be a lot less honest with you if I knew you in person.

eh. I've been playing for over a decade now. Many others here like blueemu have been playing longer than I've been alive.

If you are not yet a GM, you will never be world champion.
