I thought it was impossible too, until I carried out this analysis earlier today. What's your take on this:
Pool size on the 17/07/2018 (estimate)
600 - 1200: 219
451 - 600 : 314
441 - 450 : 866
Total: 1399
441 to 1200: Pool size entry (300/day) 17/07/2018 - 24/07/2018: 2400 - 2700
Draw size: 3750 (25/07/2018)
(2400+1399) Total: 3799...... 49 left on 441
(2700+1399) Total: 4099.....349 left on 441
Either way, cut off estimate (25/07/18): 441
Tie break with 49 left on 441: ??
Tie break with 349 left on 441:??
08/08/2018 next draw size: 4000
Please note: 300/day (441-1200) is a conservative estimate (this has been overestimated to accommodate IELTS result effect, if there is any). Typically, the 300/day entry should include profiles with/on 400 crs.
If this is the case, the 25/07/18 draw should clear all profiles on 441, and possibly include very few profiles on 440. In summary, tomorrow's draw could be 440 optimistically, or 441 conservatively.
This is true, but that figure was just 6 days after the 11th July, draw. From 17th July, a figure of 300/day was assumed to be entering the pool from 441 to 1200.

The draw strategy this year seems unfair in so many ways...However, you might be among the very few on 440 that'll receive ITA tomorrow (if the cut off is 440), since you entered the pool January. There are lots of people who also fell victim to the tie break rule on the 23rd May, unfortunately some of them are about to or have already lost points. Good luck to you tomorrow.

Are you saying that should the minimum score cut-off be 441 in the next draw, all those above 441 irrespective of when they submitted their profiles (given the current pooling) will get an ITA ?

Definitely, everyone with a score above 441 will get ITA (if the minimum score/cut off is 441), regardless of when they entered the pool. Tie break rule would only come into effect for those on 441, i.e. all profiles existing before/on the tie break date will get ITA/will be considered first.
Goodluck to everyone! Congrats to people who will be getting their ITAs today! Hopefully 441 gets wiped out and some of the 440 to be finally invited.(If not this draw, then in the next few draws, that's for sure.)
