I would like to request all intl students on this forum who are on or above 420 with the current system i.e without 30 bonus points gather here so we can have some rough idea of them atleast on this forum.
 
Erm, this isn't a bad thing, but there might be about 20 people here with that. I don't think it's going to give you much of an idea.

I just made to try it out. Because from inside I feel that if we cant get much of them here. It means they are low in numbers on this score overall. Because they wanted 100-200 points
 
Student between 420 to 440 won't affect pool much atleast for now. Even if you add max 30 points to those below 440 they reach at 470 which still lower then previous draw. You should mainly be focusing on students with CRS more then 450, those are the people who will push score for next draw higher.

But they will go upto 450 mark crowding the range of 450-500 so we can assume by that how many of them are in that range on this forum.

That's true, and even if I don't have exact number how many students are there one thing I can tell you for sure is that seeing CRS draw reaching 450 has become distance dream. I can say for sure that till end of Feb mid march draw will remain above 450.
 
I will get 15 points cause I have a 2year diploma. currently Iam at 460, moving to 475, good chances for next draw?
 
Under new regulations, my score will be 455 points, I am not confident. Do I have a chance?

Yes I agree on this point. It will take 2-3 or even 4 months to clear them up but after that new ones will enter after some time and in limited capacity so now we dont have 600 points for LMIA means 300-400 applicants are reduced in every draw with over 600 scores thus guarantee them an ITA. So then the scores will drop.
 
Wait...there are conditions. Please also go through these highlighted points. I think, there will be major reshuffle in the queue....

i am on 414, with IELTS 6.5 and 1CWE.
I am gonna give the test again.
The additional 30 points wouldn't make much difference to me.
Besides, just hope that provinces like Ontario will not increase their cut-off. If they do, many of us are screwed.

After EE, many students left Canada as their work permit were expiring and no invitations, these people are now paying off their loans in INR and what not.
FSWP people think it's easy for INT STDs here in Canada. But many of them doesnt acknowledge the fact that once you graduate, you not necessarily get a job right away. I have friends who got a job after 12 months of graduations.

You do have a good chance even without bonus points. If next draw is on 16th then you have 50/50 chance but in after 19th nov draws you will have 90% chance of getting ITA.

With only these changes, it would not attract students. In fact no pathway has been created as people tend to say and nothing has changed, it is only the CRS points that has been amended a little (max 30 points) :)
