Hello. Thank you for your reply. I am currently pursuing my PG diploma which will be completed by October 2019. Once I update this, my score jumps to 474. I updated my profile just in case with the score of 441, optimistic after seeing the draw with 438 as cut off. However, based on your suggestions, it is highly unlikely that the score may drop below 445 before the year ends.Very hard to say, but CIC may surprise us all the time. If you can, try to do 1 year diploma study.
I can stop being anxious and wait patiently till the year end to update my score and hope for the best.
Does this sound right?
