Rate Your Own Chess by F. Donald Bloss is a self-assessment and training workbook designed to help players evaluate and improve their chess strength independently.
The book uses a structured system of tests and annotated examples that allow readers to measure their ability in areas such as tactics, strategy, positional judgment, and endgame technique.
It emphasizes honest self-evaluation, encouraging players to identify weaknesses in their thinking process rather than only focusing on correct answers.
A major focus is on practical improvement through feedback, showing how mistakes in calculation, evaluation, or planning can be corrected through guided learning.
The exercises are designed to reflect real-game situations, helping players develop stronger decision-making skills under practical conditions.
A valuable resource for club players and improving competitors aiming to track progress and strengthen overall chess understanding, accuracy, and performance consistency.
