Got approved for a few cards cards and then, the safety Discover believe or not, was not approved for 'too many inquiries' and an unknown for one card (presume denied since no notice either way.)

Credit score, which has dropped a bit for the time being, remains quite high. How many hard inquiries are too many and in/over what period/s of time? There are a few more cards on the list grab. It has been about two weeks now of no activity.
