Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is this calculator?
This calculator simulates FICO 8 scoring factors based on publicly known weightings. Actual results vary based on your complete credit profile, but the relative impact of each factor is accurate.
Can I really gain 100+ points in 90 days?
Yes, if you have high utilization and/or errors on your report. Paying down utilization from 80% to 10% alone can add 50-70 points. Removing a collection can add 25-75 points. Combined strategies often exceed 100 points.
What's the fastest way to improve my score?
Pay down credit card balances below 30% utilization. This reflects on your next statement (30 days) and is the single fastest fix. Disputing errors is second-fastest if you have any on your report.
