Please Note: This rating comparison is from 2014. For the most recent comparisons, please visit https://chessgoals.com/rating-comparison/


Many players are curious about how the different chess.com ratings stack up against each other.  This survey is designed to figure out the answer!  

At the bottom of the survey there are also a few questions about USCF and FIDE ratings for comparison purposes.  If you would like to remain anonymous on chess.com it's recommended you leave the USCF/FIDE fields blank.

To help keep the survey accurate please only fill in fields when you have 25+ total games in that category, and 5+ games in the last 6 months.  As the results start to come in I'll create a few plots and summary tables in the results spreadsheet.  Enjoy!
