Hey guys, so I was really disappointed to see that I got waitlisted tonight. Does anyone know how hard it is to get off the waitlist, and do I even have a chance at getting into the other schools I applied to like UMich or UVA, especially since Im not in the upper decile of my class? Thanks, and be brutally honest if you need to
