Surprisingly, they have so many people under 800 range.
The pool definitely seem to be larger than 3000 then..

No not yet.. fingers crossed.. I have 919 points so will wait and see and if I don't then something is going on.. lol.. I'm pretty sure I have enough points to receive an invitation.. I guess there is always the next draw if I don't.. I guess there is only 849 applicants permitted as well.. who knowsPapajohns said:
And this only includes CEC it seems
with 2(b) according to http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/mi/express-entry.asp being
Well...if the cut-off is above 600, it must be possible only via Job offer / PNP...whether CEC or not...toben said:
Wait, this third draw's cutoff was 808? Wasn't second draw's cutoff 818? If that's the case, I might as well get comfy while I wait. This will take a long time...
So, between 818(last time) and 808(now), they have around 849 applicants ???
Wow... thats strange...

The way I read it is they will be issuing 849 ITAs to CEC. To get one you need >=808points.
Two things can be inferred:-
They have supply. Imagine now the number of people lying between 750-800. A lot of wait lies in EE applicants future.
Also, this tells us how they can prioritize CEC. They increased the nominations for CEC stream.
Btw what a sh*itty pool, if a person scoring 208/600 on normal points can be granted ITA from CEC pool.
Now wait for a sensational post from the_lion full of *censored word*ty analysis. I remember some modelling by other forum member, on how second third draw will be in 450 ranges. Truth is we do not have the data available on how CIC is basing their draws.
