CIC is so unpredictable, we all waited hours yesterday but all our hopes were completely smashed. Now, I am worried as ielts results are even getting published today which means additional people getting added to the pool and few were already added two weeks back. This seems never ending loop for people below 440. I guess next week prediction would be 445+ and it will take 2-4 months additional to come back to normal 440s provided they don’t try same tactic of skipping the draws.

I
guys, please need your guidance

My IELTS score - L-8.5, R-9,W-8,S-7.5........with this, I got CLB10, but my overall score is measly 425 (age 32 and don't have masters).........I have been following this thread for a while and I think scores below 435 are out of question, I don't even see any post from these people...........looking at the current trend, I think it will be unwise to even hope for PNP at this score of 425

Now either I can do masters to increase my score (which will be a time consuming thing) and I am not sure of its validity (I am considering 1 year distance program in India).........the other option is to divert my interest towards Aus 189 visa..........which has also currently become very difficult to acquire with current cut-off scores in the range of 75 (compared to 65 last year, and even 60 earlier).......my score there is currently 70 and if I had got 8 in IELTS speaking, my score would have been 80..........so the other option is to give IETLS or PTE and try getting 8+ in all sections (or equivalent in PTE)........even though I have attempted IELTS only once, I understand how difficult or improbable it is to get 8+ in all sections at same time, but I guess this is the only way left

I think I should proceed with option 2 (Aus), as somehow that doing masters at this point and waiting for more than a year does not seem to be a good idea
I think you should go for the masters. You will be waiting more than a year anyways with 425. So while you wait do something that will benefit the score as well as benefit you job wise in the long run. You are young still so age is on your side. Don't give up. The time will fly

I too was hoping for that special draw yesterday. It is now affecting a lot in my office. Can't think of anything else except what happened yesterday. Devastating.

Looking at the trend and the sudden increase in CLB9 candidates , I think it’s fair to say the 440s are the new 435s now! It can’t get any worse

We still can hope that we have draw on Friday, that’s the only way scores will stay around 440. Lets hope and spread positive vibes.
