Hi, hope you are doing well. I applied for PR twice during the pre-Express Entry system (2014), but was rejected. When EE was implemented, I did not have enough points, so I applied for study permit as a possible pathway last year. I had been rejected thrice. In all my rejections, my gcms has stated that the program I chose was not reasonable. However, should I fully trust the GCMS? Or were my past PR applications a factor why I got rejected. Thanks!

If it says for program is not reasonable, then it means that your program is not reasonable. If your past application was a factor, it will be written on your notes.

It might be a factor, but certainly the more rejections you keep getting the more unlikely it'll be for you to get a visa. You've already shown interest in moving to Canada permanently, hence you'll have to prove really strong ties to your home country and making a good case for why you're pursuing a given degree in Canada.
