None of the above statements is correct. A credit score is important because:

- It is a key factor in determining whether you qualify for a loan, credit card, apartment, or mortgage.
- It can affect the interest rate you receive on loans or credit cards. A higher credit score usually means you will receive a lower interest rate.
- It can impact your ability to rent an apartment, get a job, or secure insurance.
- It can also affect your access to certain financial products and services, as well as the terms and conditions of those products and services.
