<p>The class I want to take allows 8 on the waitlist; there are 4 on it right now. How likely is it--if I'm at least one of the 8 (my registration is tomorrow)--that I'd get in? I really want to take this class, but is it worth the risk?</p>
<p>depends on the class… some automatically admit everyone on the waitlist (like lower division math classes)</p>
<p>It’s a GE: Ancient Egyptian Religion. :-/</p>
<p>What is the class size- 50, 100, 150 or more students?</p>

<li>Is that good or bad? :p</li>

<p>Better than 50, but not as good as 150. I think your chances are pretty solid that you’ll get in, particularly on a GE class.</p>
<p>Ah, really? Great! 
I think I’ll take the plunge then. Thanks!</p>
<p>Let the teacher know how much you want to take the class and how you will really contribute (assuming you will)-- this won’t hurt your chances…</p>
