Not OP but my spouse and I have the same score - 471 - does anyone here have any estimates of the possible cutoffs for the next couple of rounds? We have maxed out our IELTS. Not sure there is anything else we can do to get more points and the anxiety is really getting to us.If your birthday does not come too fast, you have a very good chance. I believe you will get your ItA eventually.
On a side note, why not giving IELTS another try if you have room for improvement?
I already got band 10. My other option is French. Alternatively, I can increase my work experience from one year to 3 years, but I don't want to use the work experience garnered while doing my first degrees. Because to be honest, it was not paid, and I don't want to lie, though it's a family business and I can always type the reference letter myself. It's a dilemma. Waiting on 471 and having an absolutely clean conscience, Lol.If your birthday does not come too fast, you have a very good chance. I believe you will get your ItA eventually.

I want to know too. Is the draw gonna be this week or the next? No one knows here, actually.Not OP but my spouse and I have the same score - 471 - does anyone here have any estimates of the possible cutoffs for the next couple of rounds?

You've done the right thing. Claiming undeserved points could land your application in muddy waters if caught. Better to claim what you've done and be able to sleep well, even if your application is taking longer than usual.I already got band 10. My other option is French.

Also, important to highlight that 400.000 is the target of immigrants ARRIVING in Canada in 2021, not immigrants receiving invitations.True, only with draws we might be able predict something. While in theory, with more ITAs scores should go down, at the same time this announcement could attract new people on immigrating to Canada.
Are you working at the moment? If you are, you will definitely make it eventually after having completing 3 years of experience.I already got band 10. My other option is French.

If you feel you haven't done well, you can book another for December then use November to practice real hard. It's important to identify your weakness, take them seriously during practice and also, try as much as possible not to put yourself under pressure. You will scale through in the end.Hi all, so i am on 468, i took the Ielts today to max out but i feel i didn't do well in my listening. I was not sure of a couple of questions. Do you suggest i register for another immediately or wait for the result. Thanks

You reminded me of myself. I applied right ielts right after leaving exam hall. Turn out to be a wise decision. Anyhow, I would say that with new Canada’s ambitious plans, 468 seems like a good score! Learn french as a backup plan. More scores to achieve.Hi all, so i am on 468, i took the Ielts today to max out but i feel i didn't do well in my listening. I was not sure of a couple of questions.

This is my third attempt and I am really stressed out. I dedicated one month to this exam I just took. I will just wait for the result, then know what next.You reminded me of myself.

Hopefully a draw this Wednesday, and then the following Wednesday. That's the optimistic view.Considering that 28th Oct draw didn't take place, what's the prediction now?
