scores almost respectable

i just checked my scores after paying $1,200 down and now i am at 25% util. 
 
tu - 667
eq - 661
ex - 678
 
my goal was 660-680 by end of summer.  my new goal is 680-700 by end of summer.
 
i am understanding more about the "buckets" described in another post.  when i was below the 660 bucket, the age of my accounts was a plus. Now i'm in the 660 plus bucket and they are telling me that i have a short credit history because my oldest account was opened 15 years ago and the average age of my accounts is only 12 years. 
 
I GET IT, but who cares because i am feeling almost respectable once againSmiley Very Happy

Pretty good girlie. Look at the bright side. The accounts are young and so are you. What's the alternative? Old accounts and ... LOL.

Excellent! And if you reduce your UTL even more your score should go even higher!
