Should I take the SSAT test to get off waitlist?

Hello!
For some background info, I’m an 8th grader applying for 9th grade at Exeter. I was given a spot on the waitlist and I would really love to go. I think a reason why I wasn’t granted admission directly was because I didn’t take the SSAT or ISEE during the regular admissions cycle. I was wondering if taking it now (end of March/beginning of April) would be good for getting off the waitlist? Would they accept it now? I already sent the admissions office a letter of continued interest expressing my desire to go to their school. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
