Chessgoals Audit
Overall fine course and very instructive , but it is getting too long past puzzle 50. Some of puzzles in this later section were questionable but overall still very good. Too many of them I just sucked at...
Cliff
Some Tough Positons!
Some of these puzzles were really tough. Some I missed because the board appeared too big to fit on my screen properly and I missed some things on the bottom or top row which was out of view. (I did not know how to resize the board). I actually would prefer if there were no multiple choice options, as this seems to help find the solutions to some of the puzzles. But I'm not sure how you could do that. You'd have to consider a response to every possible legal move in every position! Overall, a challenging mix of different themes.

Good Collection of Puzzles
I found the Audit very insightful, and near the end of it, I was already able to see some of my own weaknesses. The puzzles were quite challenging at times, but finding candidate moves and calculating the differences between similar looking lines really felt like proper real-game training. It felt like being dropped into the critical moments of a game where there usually isn't an obvious move and you need to do some serious calculation. Watching the video solutions really helped me understand the reasoning behind the top moves and compare them with my own thought process to see what I missed. The final report gave me some useful areas to work on, and I feel like I came away with a much clearer idea of what I need to work on in my chess. Coach Matt is very responsive and got back to me quickly when I asked him to review my results, and knowing that I can reach out if I have questions about the recommendations is really helpful.

Extremely Comprehensive
Quite an accomplishment, congratulations on finally getting this done. I truly enjoyed the challenges, and subsequent frustrations! But seeing where I am and where I can go next is a breath of fresh air. So often we underestimate ourselves and, for better or for worse, seeing uniquely salient feedback is very empowering.

Helpful Diagnostic Tool!
I found this course to be an extremely helpful diagnostic tool that provided me with objective and actionable results based on my areas of strength and weakness. At the completion of the Audit, I received an impressively comprehensive spreadsheet report with not only the results, but also very detailed recommendations for how to improve in each of the various categories. The recommendations included specific ChessGoals Courses as well as other outstanding chess improvement resources. And the recommendations were not only for my current level, but also included resources and recommendations as I continue to progress in my chess journey. The amount of detail and value in the course and the report is exceptional!

An Excellent and FUN course
It's been a while since I had this much fun solving difficult puzzles. Also, incredibly practical, as all positions are from real games and the decisions you have to make are just the same as in a long OTB game. I highly recommend this course! (Set the positions up on a real board and really spend some time thinking about the positions. It's really the best that way.)

Excellent! Worth doing!
I tried this chess audit as I felt I was kind of stuck in chess and did not know how I was able to improve from here. The report was very detailed and surprisingly, it showed my weakness clearly. I am glad to know what I expected as a weakness is a true weakness. - now I can invest my time to this area confidently. On top of that, I realized another area to be working on in the future with Matt’s advice. Solving 100 problems took a long time for me but worth doing it. 5⭐️

Great course for chess improvement!
I can heartily recommend the ChessGoals Audit as a chess improvement tool. The course is a set of 100 puzzles that are a mixture of attack, defence, tactics, and strategy. While other puzzle resources prompt you what to look for, but the ChessGoals Audit mimics a real game situation. Once you have completed the course, you receive a report that analyses your strengths, weaknesses and chess style, with actionable recommendations on what you should work on next to get the best return on your study time. It’s one of the best courses I’ve seen for chess improvement. Recommended!

Real World Scenarios
I expected to do better! I like this audit because it is not filled with "to win" tactics making it like jumping into the middle of an actual game. I have yet to see the audit results, but knowing Matt's attention to detail I know I will get actionable feedback to help me know where my strengths and weaknesses lie.

Update! After further review the audit from start to finish adding the data results, gave me a complete and balanced understanding of what my areas of study need further work. Very pleased.

Insightful, specific, and very helpful
One of the most helpful courses I've studied. I was surprised to learn my tendencies from the Playstyle Matrix, and now feel empowered to tackle my specific weaknesses. I've long focused on 'general improvement' but hit a plateau, got frustrated, and lost interest. Now, with a new plan of action, I'm feeling the fire again.
Matthew
Great!
A really great selection of puzzles and the video explanations were excellent. This really helped me to identify gaps in my play and target my training.
Maxime
Fun and engaging
Really enjoyed the ChessGoals audit! The format is fun and engaging, and the report is surprisingly detailed — it clearly highlights your strengths and weaknesses across categories. For me, it confirmed what I already suspected about my game and gave me a clear direction to improve. . Highly recommend if you want an honest picture of your chess level!
Dan
Original and High Quality
Matt has designed a learning system that will help Improvers at all levels; Highly recommended for any player who is stuck or has plateaued.
Anthony
A+
It's a lot of work doing the puzzles, but it's worth it. The feedback with the stats and graphs is amazing! It's one I'll be going over again in the future as I improve.
Maria
Fun and useful
This course is quite unique. It was very interesting to see the analysis of the results after finishing the course and the areas for improvement. I had a lot of fun doing it and I would recommend this to anyone.
Michael
Learn your strengths and weaknesses
The ChessGoals Audit was a great experience to go through. The puzzles were challenging and required deep focus which was fun. A great resource of tactics to have access to that will hopefully improve my chess. I was surprised of the outcome report showing areas of my strength and weaknesses and the input that was provided by Matt based on the scores provided specific areas to focus on with resources. Very happy that I spent the time on this program.
