300-500 is very low and typically means you've done something damaging
500-650 is still low yet sometimes capable of getting decent loans with
650-720 is a high FICO that will allow you get nice interest rates
720-850 is a very high score and you can almost walk on water at any lending department (of course other factors may be included for most loans)
