CHASE Slate - How much credit score needed

[FinStar]

70 inquiries?  Holy moly!  I can only imagine the number on EX & TU!  Why are you applying for so much?  Usually by the 2nd or 3rd denial that should be a sign.

Dont want to discourage you, but inquries just contribute to 10% of score. After a year they dont have any affect on your score but they stay on report for 2 years. After a year your score will increase but not very substantially. It will only jump if you try to get the negatives off your reports. If not then you have to wait until those negatives start losing their effect on your report. Possibly 2/3 years after their appearance.
