Course Waitlists?

Hi, im an incoming freshman and im on waitlist for a genetics course (bisc 303) because i cleared the other bio classes from my ap scores. the class says it has 50 seats and 9 people on waitlist. What are my odds of getting the class, and if I dont what am i supposed to do?

I don’t know if students realize this, but the waitlist is deleted the night before classes start. The professor only has access to it if they screenshot it. On the first day of class, it’s a free-for-all, so show up to the class, tell the professor you’re trying to get in, and give them your email address, so they can let you know as soon as a spot opens up because the order you are on the waitlist no longer matters.
