Actually, when you look at the raw data, it appears that with residents everyone with 8 points got picked and only 50% with 7 points got picked. If the same people apply this year, people with 7 points will have a 1 in 3 chance of getting drawn.
For nonresidents, the raw data indicates that this year it actually took 8 points to be drawn (not 7). If the same people apply next year it will take 8 points and only 50% of those with 8 points will be picked.
