A score of 1101 would have been invited in every one of the last 10 general rounds.

Invited in the last general rounds

10 of 10

A score of 1101 is ahead of about 100.0% of the 226,793 candidates in the pool as of 13 September 2026.

IRCC publishes the pool in score bands and this score falls in the 601–1200 band, which held 574 candidates. Everyone in a band is assumed to be spread evenly across it, so the figure is precise to within those 600 points — no further.
