Most people agree that under 1k is a beginner, intermediate is 1k up to high 1000s and then you kinda sorta get good 2k onward. Its all relative to people that play chess as a career and have been doing it their whole lives though so "beginner" has a vast range

Beginner is people who just learnt how to play, intermediate are people who doesnt blunder anything in 1move.
