Nope, I think all people who qualify for CEC also qualify for FSW anyway, so that means they have 2 'caps' that they could fall under.
People who meet CEC or FSW, will be considered for CEC

Nope, I qualify only for CEC, not FSW.

Really? That's interesting, from what I remembered of the requirements they looked pretty similar, I guess you have less foreign work experience or something?

I told that based on logic, if they select CEC under FSW , than u will fill up under CEC?

There is a good chance that score will be insufficient, given the number they have announced they are targeting.

And what about my work experience??

And should i need the LMIA to get the 600 points. Thats wrong for the people with the iec or an open work permit.

Open work permits don't matter, you still need an LMIA if you want to claim the extra points.

IEC is an Open Work Permit is it not? If you want to claim points for a job offer then you need an LMIA, there is no way around it. If your skills are in demand then it shouldn't be hard for an employer to get one as that's how they are designed, to safeguard Canadian jobs unless there is a genuine need for a foreigner.
Under EE your employer should be able to apply for a free LMIA to support your EE profile.
