I MADE IT!!!!! FINALLY!!!!

New Scores as of today 702!!!!  That's Equifax, which was my lowest the last time I pulled all 3, so hopefully it's the same.  And I anticipate another increase soon.  I am so happy.

I played around with the utilization percentages on my credit cards month after month.  I am only using 2% of my limit.  It helped that I got a 10K card last Jjune.

Re: I MADE IT!!!!! FINALLY!!!!

yes, I  have found a ut. of < 3% is key for maximum points.
 
I think the conventional widsom here is < 10%, but I have also found that the magic number (at least for me) is  < 3%.

Good.  I will be a <3% in 2 or 3 months.  Might be enough to get TU over 760 and give me a little room on EX.  I might have a few yeras on EQ since I have a 120 day late that will be 3 years old this summer.
