I feel i have too many. Around january all my inq should fall off except 3 from my first app spree (Amex 2 n 1 hard pull, freedom, discover)
I have 6 now. I think that's a lot, but I tend to think that all creditors eyes watch me for screw ups.
EQ=2 EX=2 TU=1 All over 1 year old, and not counting against me now. Going on a mini spree soon though............
Well okay, here's mine all from this year:
EX=3
May = Credit One Bank
June= Bank of America (Denied)
Sept=Elan CC from local CU (Got 7-10 day notice...probably denied)
EQ=3
Sept=DCU (2 HP's, one for membership and one for CC)
Sept=WFNNB/Catherines
TU=3
Sept=Barclays
Sept=Walmart
Sept=JCP
I think I may have over done it so I am gardening till at least May or June next year
I'm not sure why the OP elected to omit inquiries older than one year. Maybe he/she will share that reason. Even though it is popular belief that Inquiries have no bearing on your FICO score after a year, creditors can still see the inquiries and factor them into credit decisions. I think its smart to keep a handle on inquiries no matter how old they are.
On to the question..... Eq = 1, Ex = 0 Tu = 0 May burn another next summer on a BCE. Hopefully that will be an Ex pull.

4 - TU, 7 EQ and 4 EX (total 15 inquiries)
Come March 2013 I'll be 4 TU, 6 EQ and 3 EX
Come June 2013 I'll be 2 TU, 4 EQ and 2 EX. (Target for refi) (total 8 inquiries)
Edit: Oh and I hate the fact that 3/15 inquiries or 20% of my total are all due to me acquiring a Cap1 secured card.
EX-4 but only 1 in the last 12 months
TU-1
EQ-0. None of the ccc's in my sig seem to like to pull eq up here in MA.
