Do you agree that I could make 2000 elo like in 2 years

In January 2nd 2025, I was at 112 rating, then everything changed. I got to 600 rating like in 3 months. So could I get to 2000 elo next year? What do you think?

Most people never make it to 1500 ELO, let alone 2000. I would set a goal of making it to 1000. The experience curve once you are over 1200 becomes exponential, in my opinion. A 500 ELO difference between 100 and 600 is not equivalent to a 500 ELO difference between 1500 and 2000. The scale is not linear.

Thanks I will for sure!

The higher in rating you go in chess the more each point is worth as the ideas and concepts become more complex and harder to learn.

You might do it but it is way easier to go from 100 to 600 than from 600 to 2000.

Also it can work to your advantage if you don't play rated games and get really good so you play online you play noobs and beat them because you have a low rating

Another thing you could not get to 2000 rating because you just aren't that good. its that simple

The logic works out, but its not that simple.

Getting from 100 - 600 is pretty easy, like everyone else said. But the more you improve... the higher your rating, the harder it is to continue to improve

Going from 100 - 600 is easy, but 600-1100, is not going to be easy, it took me like three months just to get from 800 to 1100! And I imagine from 1100 to 1500 is going to be much harder

I think a 2000 rated player is in the top 1% of chess players, so you gotta improve so much that you are going to be better then 99% of players on this site

So yeah, unless you learn and practice chess for three hours per day, and have the money for lessons and stuff, it will be pretty difficult

the suprising thing is that you know how the elo system messes up in the elo hell range(<500) and once you cross like a certain barrier you move up. 
Theres a similar barrier that exists at 2000. Once you cross 2080, you can easily get 2180...

Everyone I agree

The scale is just not linear

It is because I don't play that much chess

It's not the way to bet.

Best of luck with it, though.

I think anyone can get it in 2 years if they consistently play and analyze their games because 2000 online rating isn't too serious. That being said gaining rating is much harder as you get higher so if it takes you 3 months to go from 100 -> 600 it will probably take years at your current pace
