Hello,
It completely depends on the number of students applying in the college and the percentage they have scored at HSC level. If there are a number students who have scored more than you, you will have the chances of coming in the waiting list. If luckily the number of students applying for the particular course are less and percentage scored by them is less or equivalent to yours, your name might appear in the merit list.
Hope this helps!
All the best!
