your credit score IS NOT a indication of how much debt you have. it is only a number that rates you ability to handle debt responsibly.

you can have no debt and have a high score. you can have no debt and have a low score also.
you can have a lot of debt and have a high score. and you can have a lot of debt and have a low score also.
