Ray of Hope - 98th Draw

Hi, some advice please :)
Hubby and me are stuck at 436, both maxed out IELTS (lost 5 points when we turned 30 in March :(). Hubby is lead applicant as he has a degree, whereas I won't have mine (degree + acca qualification) till at least Dec19 and obviously we don't want to wait that long if possible!
Been looking at the hubby doing a diploma, but obviously we don't want to waste time and money if it's the equivalent of 1 college semester as opposed to a full complete diploma. Is there any way of finding out in advance how a diploma will be assessed by WES before you decide to start it?
Thanks

Do you think this pattern will repeat in the next draw? I mean no draw on 8th followed by a 450+ cut off?

It's been a shittiest year until now (especially for me by all means). Let's see what future brings our way.

no one can tell you a valuable response to this question, only WES agents may know smth about it
All you can to do is to try to evaluate your degree by using online tool of WES
All the best!
 
guys I have completed my 1 yr PGDM in business analytics. I can get my transcript by next month but I do not have an idea of the degree... maybe it takes more time. For IQAS (Since my university is evaluated by IQAS only), is the copy of degree mandatory too ? any other alternative for this so that i can get my ECA asap
 
What you guys think about possibility of 1 week draw??;):)

Iqas accept only official degree.I have the same situation and contacted them and they told me that they need the copy of my official degree certificate in order to do the assestment
 
Ey guys, one question: I have read about re-marking IELTS stories and most of them end up in small .5 increases that eventually help the person to max out IELTS (if that is what they wanted). My question is: Most of the re-marking processes end up positively?

It is simple, if you really believe you did well in a certain section and think you deserve more - MAINLY writing/speaking then go for it. Else, it is a waste of money. Go with your gut feeling. One more problem with remarking is that it takes 2-3 months to arrive by which time you could take 4 more fresh attempts AND get the result.

Re-marking worked for us though in writing section.
 
My CRS Score is 438. I am in the process of appearing for the IELTS Test again to try increase my score to 441. I would like to know if the above is the correct thing to do in the current situation as it will take 1.5 months for me to get my IELTS Score updated.
