441 is a good sign. Even after 2 ielts results, score got reduced by 1 point.

We will see the score under 440 by end of August. (If they don't skip a draw)

It looks like the race of a total applicants in the pool has slowed down a little bit.
However also it optically looks like the pool went down, it is not true. Please be aware that the draw 2 weeks ago was after 16 days instead of 14 days. And that difference of 2 days would be the negative difference of the pool.
So right now app. 3800 people make their EE profiles every 2 weeks (make, re-make or return to the pool after declining ETA).

Another interesting fact is, that Candidates under 400 are stagnating (and even decreasing), however the upper part 400+ is still gaining momentum (increasing).
So what happened is, people start to understand the fact - either get good score, be a tradesman or go home.

At least it's down by a point, even after 2 IELTS results. Now everyone hope they just continue doing it every 2 weeks till end of year! And next draw, size should be 4000 going by the trend!

This was my first and last draw at 440 due to age factor. now only option seems PNP at 435 this year

 

[vensak]

And let me help everybody:

1. How come that only 2167 people have score 441+, yet the draw was at 441.

This pool info is from 19 July not from 25 July

And

ITA will be sent out during next 24 hours !!
