That means you can work under PGWP without LMO/LMIA. Point system in EE is a whole different system.

Try and get an LMIA sorted for your job or obtain Provincial Nomination, nothing much else you can do to boost your points apart from gaining more work experience I'd assume?

Why they have made it so hard for international students :'(

because it's election year and Harper isn't getting much love? ::) (rolling eyes)

And not only students, ICT, IEC, pretty much everyone going for CEC (apart from TFWP who become eligible in CEC) are not having a good time.
 
They want us to get LMIA but no employer is interested in it...its idiotic...

try and go for PNP. Depend on your province, you might not need experiences at all (you need permanent term job in skilled NOC tho).
