I need to ask this question :'(. I am at 456 and I can max out IELTS and get 459. Should I take IELTS again or is PNP my only option with the current high score trend?

Could Nov 27th be the last draw of this year? I've started thinking this way too. :(

I seriously doubt if there will be a draw this Wednesday, as the system maintenance is up on the website.

Not sure there would be a b2b draw
I feel so helpless at 468 not even sure if cut off comes down from 471. If there is no b2b draw my game is over. I waited so long for this. I improved my score from 457 to 468 . I gave my best from my side but now I feel like my efforts are going vain and my PGWP is expiring by end of April 2020. I feel like if there's only one draw in December cut off will never come down to 468.

Dont worry. All will be well. You will get ITA before the expiration of PGWP

Ontario nominations are still issued in batches and not yet completely exhausted, due to which CRS score is still high on every draw.
I am about to create an EE profile. I have my ECA and IELTS score. I have a Bachelor's + 1-year post-grad diploma as per my ECA (even though I have an MBA). My IELTS score is 8.5, 9, 7, 6.5 (LRSW). Since I didn't get a 7 in writing, my CRS score is now 410. If I get a 7, it will jump to 468. Is it ok to create a profile and wait for any provincial nomination and redo the IELTS later and add the new score to the EE profile?

I am trying to stay hopeful.

I am thinking of starting French classes in January because with a score of 471, I am still not confident.

ECA would not be out till end of the month and also looking at the three weeks break before the next draw in January.

what do you think?

Look at it this way.. the last time people with 456 received ITA was 1 May, and the same for 459 was 24 July.. At 456, you are competing with people in the pool since 1 May.. At 459, 24 July

On 29 May score rose to 470 was down to 459 but not 456

Then, it depends how confident you are in taking the exam again, and willingness to spend exam fee

Then, it depends on how old are you (to assess when you would start losing points for age), your NOC, and how soon do you want or need to move to Canada

Have your documents prepared.. Arrange them as per ITA application placeholders.. Get your PCCs done.. Get your address history sorted..

Same bote, same points, but my PGWP expires end of May , let's hope for a b2b draw, that's our only option
