How long does it take to get to 1000 ELO?

Most players probably take a month or two of chess study and games to pass 1000 rating just like @DaBabysBurner but @B1ZMARK took several YEARS to pass 1000 (4 or 5 years I think, but then they rocketed over 2000 rating within the following year! This is a unique case of progression though).

Is 800 a good chess rating?

A rating of 800 is pretty bad. Though I would differentiate between "You are playing bad" and "You are doing bad". The fact that you are playing pretty bad is obvious as your rating and play are showing this very clearly (went over your last 2 games).

Why do so few girls play chess?

How accurate is Elo rating?

And, if you're curious: the correlation of Elo and True Rating is 88.6%. This is far from definitive proof that Elo is better than win-loss. In fact, when I run this code multiple times, the win-loss is sometimes correlated better. The high correlation does however suggest that Elo is a decent method of rating players.

Is 80 accuracy good in chess?

My accuracy in the last 30 days or so is around 72%. I would say anything above 80 on a game that goes deep is pretty good for me! Sometimes I get games as high as 90s - but typically it would be short games where an opponent blunders a piece and I'm able to pounce and put them in a bad spot.

Is a 1200 rating good?

1200 is a good achievement for a beginner who has lived in the 900 range for a while. Mathematically, a 300 Elo point gain means you'd be expected to beat your former 900-self about 80-85% of the time now. So it's definitely good improvement.
