Hey guys its kovs here :)
Since i started playing chess last year my rating was very very low. I'm talking about like I started on 1200 and it droppe to about 600 or 700 somewhere around that mark. But, i have been working very hard and as a result I have gotton myself up to 1300 (Standard), and my blitz is constantly between 1180 and 1220. I have dont over 1000 chess tactics on chesstempo and I've started reading some chess books as well as learning 2 openings for white and black and trying to memorize master games from those openings. Is there anything else i can do to improve my rating to about 1500 before the end of the year or so? and also if you have rapidly increased your rating can you share how plz.
thanks!
