IPSS Survival Rates

Based on the IPSS scores, there is a survival rate that goes along with it. Mu question is: Does the survival rate apply if no treatment is given and it is left on its own? After reading many posts here, with the treatments available, I feel these survival rates are not up to date. Any opinions on this? Thanks.
P.S. - My IPSS score is 0.5 which shows a survival rate of 3.5 years.
