According to the FICA site, my main "weak points" are the length of time I've had my accounts. I got my first credit card with Bank of America back in 2001, and that is my oldest account. It says typically people have their longest accounts being 15 years old. Well at my age, that's obviouslly impossible. So there isn't much I can do there, but just know that with more time, my score should go up. My second weak point was that my newest account was opened 8 months ago. And new accounts apparently have a negetive impact on your score. That account would probably be my circuit city 0 interest loan.

So looks like I'm doing well, I'm still in the mid 700 range. All I can do is just give it time it looks like, and keep on doing what I've been doing.
