EGF Rating per Rank
The theoretical relationship between rank and rating in the EGF Rating System is the following
- A kyu rank k is represented by the rating range where r is between 2100-100*k +/- 50
- A dan rank d is represented by the rating range where r is 2000+100*d +/- 50
- A pro rank p is represented by the rating range where r is 2670+30*p +/- 15
In table form:
Rank Rating 9p 2925 - 2955 8p 2895 - 2925 7p 2865 - 2895 6p 2835 - 2865 5p 2805 - 2835 4p 2775 - 2805 3p 2745 - 2775 2p 2715 - 2745 1p 2685 - 2715 |

In several countries, you obtain a certain rank when you exceed the midpoint (e.g. you get 1d when you get above 2100) and lose that rank again when you drop under the next lower midpoint (e.g. you go back to 1k again if you fall under 2000).

Some explanations for the exciting table. avgGoR = rating of a theoretical average -n-dan. avgBGA = rating of average -n- dan from interpolation across all active players from 19k to 5p. 7 dan in BGA terms is defined as 7.5 dan. This table takes as its basis the latest european rating list as displayed in EGD, all ranks above 7d are changed to be 7d for the purpose of making this table without any headache.
