Does ICES evaluate MBA as masters?
Yes, I checked their website. My university is not in their blacklist and is AICTE and UGC approved so I feel they will count my MBA as Master's. Fingers crossed though. After the turn of events I am a bit doubtful of everything, haha !

Wait for direct ITA, your score is good to go!
Nitin bro, need your help and advice.

Since you applied for ONtario PNP, maybe you can give me a genuine opinion.

I have created an express entry profile and currently standing at 466 but my education is Masters in Environmental science and currently working in IT firm for almost 2 years as an interactive media developer NOC 2174.

In NOC, they have mentioned that they Bachelors of Science is USUALLy required. Do you think that I can opt for 2174 and that won't be rejected. All job duties fall in that category. Please guide me bro as I was afraid that If I go with PNP route they may reject the application. Any references would be awesome!!!!!

If anyone one could please shed some light to me... I started this last Dec. 2018 by doing my 1st IELTS attempt, I didn't know I needed the ECA to enter the pool (silly me). So, I got the ECA in March and entered the pool in April 2018, the thing is I wasn't able to get my IELTS writing at 7.0 to boost my score until December 2019.

The current score at 468 will expire in April 2020, should I just withdraw the profile a day or maybe 2 before expiring or should I renew it now?

EDIT: I completed my French exam (TCF Canada in JUNE 2019), so I got the "Living in French Canada" message around that time. I haven't been received any NOI from Ontario or whatever other PNP.

Dnt misguide people if u have higher score , 465 is not too far from 473 .dnt say whatever u think , explain the facts . Could u please justify that Scores would not drop to 465?
Ok man let me give you some facts:

First and the most important: As calculated multiple times in this thread as well as ray of hope 133th, 134th etc. The pool flow-in rate for 470+ is about 18+ people per score per day.

The flow-in rate of 465-470 can only be higher than this due to heavy-tail distribution. But lets assume it is 18 people per score per day as well.

465-468 have been accumulated in the pool for 110+ days. Thats 4*18*110 = 7920 people.
469-472 have been accumulated in the pool for 30+ days. Thats 4*30*18 = 2160 people.

Thats 10080 people total.

You think there is only 8 scores difference between 465 and 473? The difference is actually 10080 people.

With my calculation from ROH 134: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/ray-of-hope-134th-draw.669700/page-8

1700/8*14 = 2975 people enters pool with CRS 469+ every 14 days.

Now tell me again, whats the chance of CRS 465 with only 3400ITAs each draw?

You are right but it's just that people around that score don't want to accept reality so soon (including ME), since I feel it is a decent score and chances were bright if people with the score entered around August. Which I wish had not happened :)

I would like to learn French as well. Could you share more details of the French language program please.
Thanks
This page details a few useful resources: https://www.fourmilab.ch/francais/lfrench.html

"French in Action" is especially valuable; even if you just watch the videos through a couple times (without working through the exercises, etc.) you can hold your own in conversational French. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfAjOIwmdv-LY05FN9s9WTNvLj0uvi_Y-
