    That is a tough question to answer, it would depend on your balances, open accounts, and credit limits...ideally on credit cards you want a balance of 40% or less of what is available credit limit,with continous activity to help boost your score...you want to pay more than minimum to show a decreasing balance. Of course having several different types of trade lines help (i.e. mortgage, leases, revolving) always increase your score especially when they decreasing at faster pace than minimum but show some usage.
