What is a good rating for a teenager?


I started chess when I was 13 years old, just practice, learn the theorems and paly more games, you will be 2000+ in no time.


It’s going to take some time, don’t rush, just read chess books, learn the basics, and watch YouTube chess videos.
At your level, 1400 is quite good, but there are still some important things in chess you may need to learn before actually becoming a 2000. Just keep working! You will get there!

I'd think 3500 is good, phenomenal even.
But here is the real answer: It has nothing to do with "teenager" or "kid" or what ever. It depends on how long you've been playing and how many games/hour you have on the clock. If you just started playing chess last week, then you're fantastic at 700. But if you've been playing 10 years, then 700 is not shameful, but it's definitely at the lower end of things (if you truly continuously played chess regularly for 10 years)
"3500" you're delusional

3500 is not possible rating, its even impossible for the World's top players, EX: Magnus Carlsen and Hikaru Nakamura to reach 3500 in blitz or bullet chess.
OTB ratings, Magnus Carlsen's peak was 2882.
I guess you were referring to a chess.com puzzle rating?

I'm sure they would say that if they were refering to that.

If only the world's best players can reach it, then hes referring that only the players like Hikaru and Magnus are actually good at chess, then he means everyone else is trash?
I looked over his account, hes playing below 1000 in chess. I mean a person who plays like a beginner is now judging that everyone else other than Magnus and Hikaru are not fit to be called "good" at chess?
I don't know what to say to this troller.

hikaru once reached 3500+ in bullet i think
Hikaru did, but it doesn't mean that everyone else than him is not fit to be called good at chess.
The guy who said 3500 is the line for anyone to be called good at chess shouldn't be talking, he plays below the 1000 level, just a troller.
