    They remain for 2 years, alot of excessive inquiries can kill your score.

    You do not have to worry about inquiries, until you get turned down. Once you get turned down, you need to cool it. Change your situation by paying off debt or increasing your income. Do not apply for new credit for at least 6 months. If you have been exercising your present credit, lower rate offers and higher limits will come your way from your existing creditors.
