How long does it take to gain 100 elo points?

I just now looked at your rating. It just depends how well rounded you are, and whether you find the book that is right for you.

Yeah I think your right, I also think it depends on the person and how much there willing to study
I would have done the bishop sac or queen check. Good job finding b4. I even did not catch that during your explanation.
I can get it in a game, I started with 500 elo points, won 4 games and lost 1 (wasn't trying hard), 80% win rate. More on this thread: https://www.chess.com/forum/view/community/chess-is-too-easy

Nice stuff 
Looks like your opponent blundered several moves into checkmate, and it would have been safer to have just taken the rook.

Yeah, It was a wired game. My opponent played pretty unorthodox so I had a winning position from very early on

Yeah 100%
my first bullet game i improved 138 points
I recently played against a person who raised 426 points in 30 days. So you can definitely do 100 points

I gained 108 rating points in one game.
... it was a totally awesome game, though. Worth every point.

If you start a new account, you can go up 200+ points if you are having a good day. Then don't play with it again till your other account catches up.
Don't do that though. That is petty. That's just my dark humor.

well i gained 100 pts in rapid in the last 2 months but i also knew i should be able to hit 1800 when i did set myself the goal to reach that. i reached 1700 for the first time 1 year ago so going by that i gained 100 pts in like 1 year. i dont think i can gain another 100 pts now if i wanted to.

I don't think the difference between 1800 and 1900 is that big. If you put your mind to it and focus and study you should be able to hit it
