Unlikely, as chances go crossword clue

32 Across · WSJ Crossword, September 22, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
SLIM
SLIM (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Unlikely, as chances go” is SLIM. It appears as 32 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of September 22, 2026, a Tuesday puzzle titled “Car Talk” by Fred Raker & Jeremy Lieberman, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 7, column 2 of the 15×15 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with S and ends with M, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Tuesday puzzles stay approachable with light wordplay, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
