With the cut off score being 462 during this week’s draw, a high chance of a FST draw around the corner and you losing points in Dec, I would say very slim chance.
I would start exploring PNP route. What’s your NOC?

Actuality I was looking at historic rounds and saw some as low as 432 and several in 450's. I went further back and noticed that it was once even in 470's (before being lower). Someone told me that such going up and low is common throughout the year. What do you think?
It happens but it's not sudden. Right now the circumstances are different. Provinces are very active with their nominations, so we see a lot of people with the scores 1000+. Also many people with high scores come from the US due to the immigration policy there. The cut off score might go lower, much lower but it might take a year or more and it's not guaranteed.
You might wanna look at AINP. Have you checked Alberta as a province you are interested in on your profile? Also look at other provinces such SK, MB, PEI etc.
Thanks for Manitoba, EXISTING connection to the province is must. Unfortunately I don't have any connection there.
Right. I am one of those. Securing ITA was not a problem at all.
But now there are more and more people. I have a friend who applied for his PR straight from Master’s from Yale. He didn’t even apply for opt.
Difficulties are always subjective. For some foreigners, they can easily get a PR status of the U.S.A. through EB-1. Even Labor Certification can be waived sometimes by a National Interest Waiver (NIW).
This realization should put things in different prospectives and make most if not all of us humble, to some degree.
