What credit cards would I have the best chance of getting approved for?

myFICO gave a range of 688 - 728 within the next year and a range of 728 - 768 in the next two years. This is just Equifax. Experian and TransUnion tend to be slighly higher in my case.

 

Current score: 608 (EQ)

Oldest account: 1 year, 6 months.

AAoA: 8 months.

 

Future score: 688 - 728 (1 year later)

Oldest account: 2 years, 6 months.

AAoA: 1 year, 2 months.

 

Future score: 728 - 768 (2 years later)

Oldest account: 3 years, 6 months.

AAoA: 1 year, 8 months.

Provide some more info such as Util, type of accounts, any past negative history, DTI, etc. As it looks right now, it's hard to tell with just your score alone and it's low.

2010: 475 EQ 2011: 503 EQ 2012: 600 EQ2013:632 EQ
Starting Score: 634 EQ-3/13/13
Current Score: 706 EQ-8/29/13 703 EX-7/12/13 705 TU-8/9/13
Goal Score: 700

What has your EQ so low currently with no baddies?

What are they basing your score increases on? I don't tend to like the projecting models for future credit scores.

Well, I did open a lot of accounts recently. Could that do it?

I applied for BOA, Capital One, CareCredit, and Wal-Mart within the last 6 months and was approved. I want at least one high limit rewards VISA or MasterCard like the Capital One Quicksilver. I'd be satisfied with that for a while. I'm going to garden for it for a year or two. Just until I can get the Quicksilver.
