Hey friends, I did some calculations and wanted to know your opinion on the same. As per my calculation, the next cut-off will be 469. I myself is way below than this, but it is what below maths says. Please share your thoughts.
1. 25th Oct: Number of crs 451+ applications in pool = 12,999 (451-600) + 1,255 (above 600) = 14,254
2. 30th Oct: Draw conducted. Score: 475. ITA issued 3900.
3. 08th Nov: Number of crs 451+ applications in pool = 14,180 (451-600) + 757 (above 600) = 14,937
4. Applications entering between 30th and 8th Nov (14 days) = 14,937 - 14,254 + 3900 (ITA issued on 30th) = 4,583
5. Applications entering per day = 4583/14 = 327.35 ~= 328 (round up)
Calculating data for 13th Nov draw
6. 13th Nov: Draw conducted. Score: 472. ITA issued 3600
7. Number of applications entered between 8th & 13th Nov = 328 * 5 = 1640
8. Estimated number of applications on 13th Nov = 14,937 (as of 8th Nov) + 1,640 = 16,577
9. Estimated number of applications after draw = 16,577 – 3600 (ITA issued) = 12,977. These are <= crs 472 as backlog above 473 is cleared.
10. There are 22 crs levels between 451 to 472.
11. Average number of applications at each level (451-472) = 12,977/22 = 564.21 =~ 565. I know it will be different, so considering the AVERAGE
The tentative date for next draw is 27th Nov
12. Estimated number of applications entering the pool between 13th & 27th Nov = 4,583 (refer point 4)
13. Based on 13th Nov draw, ratio of application >= 473 = 16,577 (point 8)/ 3600 (ITA issued) = 4.60.
14. Considering above ratio, number of new entering pool with crs >= 473 = 4,583/4.60 = 995.28 =~ 996. Remaining 3,587 (4,583 – 996) goes below 473.
15. Average number applications added at each level below 473 = 3587/22 (levels between 451-473) = 163
16. Average number applications added at each level below 473 = 565 (point 11) + 163 (point 15) = 728
17. Consider 3600 ITA to issue on 27th Nov
Prediction for next cut-off
18. 996 (>= crs 473, point 14) + 728 (crs 472) + 728 (crs 471) + 728 (crs 470) + 420 (crs 469). Since there are average 728 at crs 469, 420 selected applications will be adjusted by tie breaker.
