People who are proposing that CRS will go higher (I read 452 in some post), it won't and there is a reason (Do not listen to consultants, they will use your weakness to cash themselves out):
Previously when CRS cut-off was used to circle around or above 450, the number of ITAs issued through EE was low, hence all the ITAs were given to people in 451-500 and PNP people. But from 2017 onwards, it didn't and will not fall below 3000 at all, and is likely to be at or above 3.5K per draw.
The last hike was not primarily because of the people receivng siblings and franophones points (though it is a factor), but rather as I think, most universities release their results between March - July, starting new semester in September - October. So again, as I like to think, the fresh graduates enrolled in the pool after completing their studies and filling up this 451-500 segment.
The next draw will be the one which will actually benefit the people who received more points in last month and the cut-off for next draw (considering next wednesday) will likely to fall at 425 +- 2. And after that, it will hit again the lowest of all times (below 413).
I can say as most of us anticipated here earlier, In August, CRS will hit below 400 segments or September at most.
I pushed myself into the darkness after 66th draw, but after returning back to this Ray of Hope thread, I can see the light again. Accept my gratitude all of you good people here!
