You guys have to understand something, these 471 candidates were not added in the past two weeks, because simply: the cut off is in september!
IRCC numbers do not make sense.

The tie-breaking rule is only applicable for 471 candidates.
Moreover, people who managed to enhance their scores still retain the date when they first joined the pool.

For example, a dude who joined the pool in Jan 2020 with CRS 468, decided to retake his IELTS in September and managed to gain additional 3 points (e.g. writing from 7 to 7.5) 1 week ago. He was a 471 candidate with the join date of Jan 2020 in the last draw.

There is no point in resorting to conspiracy theories. The reality is EE is very very popular around the world and that has been reflective in the upward trend of scores since January last year when the CRS score came down to 438!

Granted they're popular... Granted most of the people applying are the ones in US or leftover from other unsuccessful immigration plans... Wouldn't that indicate a spike in other areas of the score table as well??... Or are 100% of those people coming in above 471??...i know that I'm being pedantic but this seems a bit unnatural.

and what is the best description for level of this education? ''One or two year diploma'' or ''master'?

This is why some people are making fake profiles because they try to lock down their tier-breaking date early even with a fake IELTS that they haven't obtained yet... I don't know why several guys here are trying to justify this unethical attempt and rationalize the CRS bar which should have been lower by 1-2 scores. Did you really understand what #5,886 means? Anyway, I'd say to those fake profiles, please be responsible for your future and take your own risk. IRCC is already aware of this issue and is discussing action plans. Technically, it's very easy to track based on system log.

It is not so difficult to fathom! Express Entry is most popular amongst a certain age band of the population majorly. People over a certain age, are not looking to immigrate and if they are, that number is really minute. And even in younger age group, the people who are looking for it are well qualified and skilled professionals who generally tend to have the required credentials for such scores. If they do not have the required scores, they take the measures to get the required scores since people are more aware of their chances realistically depending on the CRS cut off

But all these with above 470??

Yes. 470+ scores are not THAT hard if you have 2 diplomas and have less than 30yr. The world has 7+ billion people.

You guys have to understand something: I was sitting at 469 since January 2020, but got invited with 508 on the first draw of september. If the cutoff would be 508, and I would be the last person to be invited, the tie brake would be January 2020.
People improve their scores, and that's why the cutoff can go "back in the time", even when the entire range of a certain score has been empty on the previous draw.

I know that, but by that logic. You say that all of the 471 candidates are people who improved their scores and no one was added newly to the pool as the previous 4200 draw cleared all the 471 and higher candidates based on the numbers IRCC are publishing.
however, this is cant be true as groups such as 461-470 saw no decrease in numbers. So where are we justifying this addition of profiles if the cut off is in september?
Let me tell you a possible scenario, 4200 were drawn with a cut off of March in the last draw. Numbers published by IRCC indicated that ALL 471 and higher were cleared at that point (which is not true). This draw of 4500 saw a cut off of september, so all i can think is, its a continuity of the previous draw and there are still people at 471. Therefore why is IRCC saying that there is no more candidates at that target score? Numbers and dates clearly show that there still are up to this day with 471 score.

So am at 469. Planning to learn French. Am using Duolingo. I think just a few points (6-10) should be helpful and that would be quicker for me. Since birthday is coming up in April. So could you just help me out on the most effective ways of doing it? Like maybe attempt listening and reading in the test
