credit score bump - two above 700

when I started building credit in April this year I started Equifax at 632.. it came up but always hovered just below 700, it just rose too 709!!!!!! a new account reported and I'm certain my util came down too. my experian has hit a high of 701 but is now 679 due to inq hits, two new accounts have not reported on it yet, I'm hoping it will rise. as it stands right now TU is 754, EQ is 709 and EX is 679. two of the three are above 700!!! two months credit history, zero bad marks. inquiries are killing me with 15 on eq, 1 on tu and 11 on ex, ALL two months old and newer. as they age I should see 750+ I'm thinking. getting there!!!!! 

April 15 2015 EQ 630.. rebuild credit journey, zero baddies, 13 year credit age, 4 years aa. current scores June 1 - EQ 709, EX 679, TU 754. in the garden til 10/15.. venture card is in my sights!
