Checked again today - after plenty of opening and closing of CC accounts - the VantageScore was great.
The numerical score ranges from 990 to 501 equaling grade ranges from A to F (higher scores represent a lower likelihood of risk) It looks like VantageScore is now used by all three credit report companies. I don't know what happened with the FICO score!?!

I am a little confused and sceptically, but here are our VantageScores:

Mrs. USAFAN: 990
USAFAN: 990

Added: I had plenty of inquiries too!
