depends on the make & type of condom and whether it has been tampered with
thicker condom and those covered with spermicide has higher protection than those "thin & sensitive" type.
branded one are also safer as likely to have better quality control than those run by night brand
if you partner poked pin holes into the condom then er ....

If used properly and condom is 97% effective against pregnancy, so you'd only have a 3% chance of getting pregnant. However, most people don't use them "properly" and so they're only 80% effective on average. Make sure you reread the box every once in a while to make sure you're using them the right way.

About 3%. A condom is not 100% safe sometimes some woman allow their partner to do a little fore play before they put the condom on. Remember your partner does not have to ejaculate for you to get pregnant. I have known of someone who became pregnant just by foreplaying . No penetratiion and she got pregnant incidentally she was technically still a virgen

Not 100%, that's for sure.
It depends on how strong the condom was, if it broke or had any rips, if the brand is a good brand or some cheapy picked up from a back-alley man...
Either way, still good to take a pregnancy test a little while afterwards just to be on the safe side.

Depending on the domer?
Assuming no breaks, and it was on his willie before any contact, and was not left to fall off iside as he wilted, extremely low.
If, however, any of those are not met, the chances start climbing, slowly.
Did the dommer use a contraceptive gel?
If'n it did, this lowers the probability.
Now the preaching, which I feel I have to, because I wish I'd listened.
The only true safe sex is abstenance. Also the hardest thing to do is abstain.
If you do the crime, make good the time.

There are a lot of factors involved in that question. Quality of condom, woman's menstrual stage, man's virility, any other contraceptive methods used, etc... I feel confident in telling you that if it was a good quality condom in good condition your chances are as little as 5% to as much as 15%. Hope it helps. I am not an expert though.

Assuming that it's used correctly, I think it's in the below 1% area. If it wasn't used correctly in anyway, I think the statistic jumps as high as 13% (since it is said to be 87% effective if used incorrectly).
In either case, there is a risk. How low or high is based on what happens.

Condoms are generally around 97% effective.

Between 1 and 2%. Nothing is fool proof except for abstinence.
