Waitlisted at Binghamton... like everyone else in my school. Chances?

<p>Hi there! So basically i was waitlisted at bing and it's my top choice! Can you guys tell me if you think that I have a chance coming off the waitlist? Please be honest!
gpa: 3.8 unweighted</p>

<p>SAT:
reading-590
math-670
writing-610</p>

<p>ACT:27</p>

<p>4 yr varsity tennis, national honor society, and like 4 other clubs
won many athletic awards, and 2 scholar awards</p>

<p>about 400hrs of community service</p>

<p>I also met the director of admissions and mailed them a letter</p>

<p>Wow, I’m surprised you got waitlisted. I guess admissions standards have gone way up with the economic crisis?
You have a great GPA and good ECs. How difficult was your courseload? The only thing I can think of is the fact that your SAT scores are at the bottom of their range, except for math.</p>

<p>I would expect you to have a good chance of getting off the list normally, because I am surprised you’re on it at all. This may not be true though, my guess is their admissions standards have gone way up.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>I take all honors classes except spanish, and AP Calc/bio/physics b
i got into university of michigan and geneseo, waitlisted to nyu
so this college stuff kind of doesn’t make any sense</p>
