It was crude as I only included rating comparisons of the top 20 Canadian and top 20 Americans. Then the Elo difference from this data pool was approx. 50-70 points higher for both Canadian and USCF when compared to ELO. Not sure about the difference when comparing the next lower rated groupings. 100 points seems too high for this top group of players. As a side I found that Canadian and USCF ratings are virtually on par with each other. Many Canadians have USCF ratings and vice versa. Also one can compare foreign players Canadian and USCF ratings to see how the differ. > >I've heard that at some levels it is a 100+ difference >on the USCF side but that it varies, lower differences >for higher ratings. > >Anyway, this is to conver the ELO 2040 rating of a Louguet II >test result to USCF. > >Thanks, >Stuart
