Rebuilding credit

When I first started out with credit I sent out a bunch of inquires. In 12 months they should no longer affect my credit right? What can I do to rebuild my credit in the meantime

Re: Rebuilding credit

They'll fall off your credit after 24 months, not 12. 

For  now, you can Garden Smiley Happy
Just sit along and wait until the 2 years passes.... 
If you have any baddies, you can work on getting those removed. Or if you have a credit card, use it, pay it use it pay it Smiley Happy

Ugh tell that to the dealership that refused to give me a loan because I had "too many inquires" that are due to fall of in February.. jerks. 

I wasn't aware it had less effect after 12 months.. That's cool.

Incorrect. They have NO score effect after twelve months. Thats well documented by FICO.
