Yup my USCF is higher and my FIDE is lower
who's higher than me otb
I feel like fide is much lower in the U.S. than in other places
Lol you think
?
I meant that Fide is almost always lower in the US than it should be
It's always lower becoz it should be....Uscf ratings are more inflated.For example my 2000 fide coach is as good as a National Master.
Im not talking about fide to USCF. Im talking about US fide compared to other countries
For ex, my friend, who is 2000 fide, mainly got that rating from germany, but in USCF he is only 2000-2100 which means that his fide is supposed to be lower
Im curious to see what percentage of people are higher than me. say yes or no. Don't lie. my uscf is 1839
Current Yes count: 8
Current No count: 10
Remember, this is USCF not chess.com ratings
I think I was higher when you posted this, but fell lower in February. After an event in May, however, I am back over 1860.
How has yours changed?

Likely. He’s young.
Yeah the US isn’t the only country with frequently (wildly) inaccurate FIDE ratings but it’s definitely pretty pronounced.
Once you get strong enough to be invited to norm tournaments, maybe it gets a bit less screwy. But I don’t foresee myself ever playing those
