According to my recent Equifax report....

FICO scores range from 300 (Lend you money? You must be joking!) to 900 (heres money, would you like to sleep with me?) Average score is somewhere in the 700-850 mark.

Where are you finding your scores? I got one of those free Equifax Canada checks last year and I didn't see a score on it. Although of course I can't find it now to check :o
