So I just finished this internet ELO rating test at 1500.
How come The rating is so much different than my actual stats here on CHess.com.
Solving puzzles on Chess.com I'm not even above 1000.
Most of the time I make the biggest mistakes Losing to players with <1000 ratings. And playing Bullet is just a total mess.
Now I (know) how to move pieces for some time but actually started playing (serious) when I joined CHess.com a couple of months ago.
In this article:
Anatomy of a Chess Player: Chess Ratings From Beginner to Expert"They describe this rating as followed:
1400-1500 (5-6 years of experience) Intermediate level player. Good thought process, does not leave pieces en prise. Advanced tactically, both on offense and defense (might occasionally miss a defensive tactic). Has an opening repertoire and plays pet openings. Has intermediate endgame, positional and analysis skills. One of the reasons for low rating is players poor positional evaluation abilities. Will probably need a chess coach to improve further.
The test says 95% accuracy on the estimation. This whole rating thing just doesn't make sense for me.
The elometer is an old bad joke.

Your Elo rating of 1003 here in blitz is much more accurate, after 1500 games.
