Yes, even I also observed this same thing..

I think there will be a huge number of applicants in this range of 400-450 CRS.

Also this is the next nearest range of CRS for getting ITA since last draw lowest CRS was 453 and this time people are expecting to get ITA from this pool of applicants with CRS 400-450.

It may be that many are not registered here..
Or may be that they just wanted to be silent watchers.. Not taking part in conversations..
But then how is it going to help them ??

By the way I've noticed interesting thing. In this topic only several people take part. Is it really so few of us who score 400-450? Because other topics which discuss scores below 400 and above 450 have many participants. Strange observation
What do you think comrades?

btw, how is your IELTS appeal?
It's only one week since I requested the remark of my IELTS. They say it can take up to 8 weeks. So I sit back and watch :)

In your situation I think 10 additional points are not worth 300$. If it were 50 ::)

I have 418 points CEC.
Well if we believe CIC statement that they have about 22000 applicants in the pool our spreadsheet represents 5%. So there are 257 people on the spreadsheet with a score between 400-450, if that's 5% it means there should be around 5200 applicants with this score in the actual pool, of course plus the ones with a higher score. If this will be true we have pretty good chances.
I am kinda hoping for 2 draws in the upcoming 2 last weeks of May, will see how it goes :)

422 here. I think I'll lose 6 points in August when I turn 33. Sucks to think I'm getting too old.

IELTS scores [S:9 L:8.5 W:8 R:7.5]. For the people saying they're losing 50+ points on one bad IELTS score, I don't think it works like that. Pretty sure you'll get points for the CLB score of each category. For example I get 34 points for everything apart from reading, which I get 31 points for.

I'm hopeful I'll get ITA eventually, based on the previous scores. But it's very hard to predict. I'm desperate to get to Canada one way or another as my ex is probably going to take my children there to live permanently. She's Canadian so can move back easily.

If it doesn't look like I'll get ITA hopefully I can get a job there to boost my score, but I will any Canadian employer give a job to someone who doesn't have PR? What are the other options? Get a work permit and try and land a job? I'm a software developer and it looks like there are plenty of jobs out there... fingers crossed.

Sitting at 402 lost due to my ielts in listening or else would have been near 440 Damn it.


But hoping to get an ITA if not now in few months but after the next two draws if the scores ain't looking like coming down then might go for IELTS again.

Let's hope all of us get an ITA soon

Hi friends, I am at 409.
I am going to have my wife's ECA done which should add 8 more points.
I am persuading her to take IELTS but she is not confident enough.

Hi friends,

I am at 406. Haven't been checking the forum regularly as it was quite dis-heartening to see that the draws are not happening.

We all understand your anxiety. And no one other than top officials and the minister knows the answer to it.

Also please respect the topic. There are topics where 350-400 scores are being discussed in detail.
