Hi all,

My ielts scores are:
Reading: 9
Listening: 8
Writing: 7
Speaking: 6.5

What are my chances to get into the express entry pool?

I’d highly appreciate any response.
 
Hi Keertana, I am not too sure whether you know the entire procedure of getting into Express entry. I would suggest you to go through the pinned posts to educate yourself more and learn different aspects of Express entry system .
Regarding your IELTS score, Canada converts these scores into CLB categories and the trick is to get a consistently fair score in all bands. In your case, you have done really well in Reading & Listening & you would get highest CLB score in those bands. But unfortunately, your Speaking score is poor and it should be a bit more.
Having said that, IELTS is not the only criterion to get into the Pool and get selected. You could have a Masters' degree or you may have relatives living in Canada that helps too.
 
Hi,

I have my masters in health administration with one year of experience in USA and I am a dentist in India with 3 years of experience as dental surgeon and office manager. Also I have relatives in Canada.

Will this help?

i think if you increase your speaking from 6.5 to 7 you can increase your score by 50 points. i think you need to have immediate relatives to imporve your score.
 
Have you requested for reevaluation on speaking? There is chance for you to increase it to 7 and meeting the CLB 9 on all categories to boost your CRS

you just need to improve your speaking by +0.5 , you can already enter in the express entry pool but competition is tough now
 
I think you have a high chance Keertena. But while you’re entering the pool try requesting a re-evaluation of your writing score to see if there’s an improvement. Also use the IRCC tool to see where your points lie. Am sure a 445+ range will cushion and you should probably get a draw soon.

Bests!
