To receive a grade from Chess Scotland you must have at least 8 games played against graded opponents.
To achieve a FIDE rating you must score at least 1/2 a point against 5 FIDE rated opponents.
Due to the much lower number of FIDE rated events in Scotland, it is much more difficult to achieve a FIDE rating than a CS grade.
