i left 200$ on my bill it dropped on the 19th. I paid it off the next day and i dropped 15 points on experian. I am generally confused I am doing everything right what else can they possibly want.

I would look elsewhere for the cause but really I would not even worry about +- 20 pt moves in Fico, its going to fluctuate all the time.
I assume your balance on your CR was updated to 0 which FICO does not like.

In the words of Hillary " At this point, why does it matter?" lol
so a 15 point drop doesn't matter is your explanation. got it.
so one of the things it says is some accounts are not in good status. So that must mean my autherized card because i have paid of my discover in full the past 2 months.

Is the AU card reporting late payments or a high balance reporting?

It's an inside joke. Sorry 'bout that.
With the flurry of these 'score drop' threads (hell, think i have a few out there), all you hear is, 'something else must have changed, things you cannot see or control' etc etc,, and after those explanations are given, you'll get the ' you shouldn't worry abouut your score so much....scores are dynamic....always changing....as long as it's within 20 pts you're fine." I just wanna hear a new/fresh explanation for all these crazy score drops. As I've stated a 100 times....I recently paid off $20k in debt and gained 30 pts across all 3 bureaus.... a week later, I had a balance increase of $44 on a single account and lost 6 pts...so I basically netted 24 pts after paying off $19,956.00.
Truth is, nobody really knows. The best and only advice that really can stand the test of time is, pay your bills on time, don't incur a ton of debt and the rest will take care of itself.
if 600 out of a 2300 limit is considered high then yes.

Its below 30% so thats okay though you want to have your card(s) report less to cover for the AU balance.
