441 and opened profile on 25th December. Should I give up already?
Not at all! Last week, although cutoff was same 441, the tie break is 4 days earlier, so still a positive trend, although slightly so. People have mentioned the Ontario PNP nominations that were out this week, so have faith for another 2 weeks!

I have a question:

according to this link
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/become-candidate/rounds-invitations.html

The total number of candidates in the Express Entry pool as of May 4, 2018 with a CRS above 441 is only 2,313 (601-1200…205 people, 451-600…1116 people and 441-450…992 people). However, the number of invitations issued states 3,500 ITAs are issued. To whom are the remaining 1,187 ITAs issued. Because, Express Entry pool as of May 4, 2018 do not have 3,500 candidates with a score above 441.

Can someone please explain this simple math for me?
The remaining 1187 ITAs went to folks who got added or increased their score to 441 or above (from May 4 - May 9).

People added in last 5 days will be even more than 1187, since that number 2313 includes people with CRS = 441, but almost none of them got ITA. The cut-off date moved forward by just 4 days!!

Congrats to all those who got ITA today!

High influx to the pool in the last 2 weeks is worrisome (almost 3500 folks got added or increased their scores to 441 or above in 14 days). Good news is that the next IELTS result is coming after the next draw (if it happens on May 23rd).

True. That means around 1600-1700 folks in 5 days!
