What is my midscore? Confused

Right now I am at 676 EQ - 676 TU - 643 EX

 

What is my mid score?  I don't want to assume it's actually 676 when it is 643?  I have read that it can be the lowest of the three?  Which, again, doesn't make sense.  

 

Help?!

My FICO Scores:
9/17: EQ - 542 / TU - 535 / EX - 506 // Mortgage: 553, 545, 486
10/ 17: EQ - 558 / TU - 563 / EX - 586 // Mortgage: 554, 568, 536
11/17: EQ - 630 / TU - 589 / EX - 614 // Mortgage: 606, 606, 572
12/17: EQ - 630 / TU - 624 / EX - 619 // Mortgage: 584, 612, 671

9/18: EQ - 676 / TU - 676 / EX - 643 // Mortgage: 652, 628, 606

The FICO mid-score is the middle of the three. In your case, I am not sure and would be interested to know. A more knowledgeable MFer will chime in time.







Your FICO credit scores are not just numbers, it’s a skill.

OP—From my research (here, elsewhere, and talking to lenders), If two of the scores are the same, they use that score, regardless of whether the two repeated scores are higher or lower than the third score.

Depends on who "they" are.

Unless these are your mortgage scores, and you're applying for a mortgage, it doesn't matter, because I don't know of any importance to the 'middle' score except in the mortgage application process.

 

If these are your mortgage scores and you are applying for a mortgage I think 676 would be your middle score in the above mentioned scenario.

Mortgage lenders are the “they” to which I refer who will use middle FICO mortgage score.
