<p>How much does it help if you have a parent that is a professor at harvard?</p>
<p>You'll probably enjoy a very intellectual home life. Oh, you are asking if there is any admission tip from having a parent who is a Harvard faculty member. I've read that there is, but I have no idea how powerful a tip that is. I'm sure it's still a good idea to prepare as well for your application as you would if your family had no connection to Harvard at all.</p>
<p>yea, im definitely banking on it having any impact.</p>
<p>just trying to boost my confidence/ make myself feel better. lol.</p>
<p>Being a facbrat is a significant admissions boost at most colleges. I can't quantify the size of the boost at Harvard.</p>
<p>facbrat. wow nice.</p>
<p>It is definitely a boost , in my opinion. Does he have major contacts within
the university?</p>
<p>he is a professor who teaches a class on the undergraduate level.
mostly he does research, but is more affiliated with the med school.</p>
<p>yes, i believe it is quite a big boost</p>
<p>which class does he teach? :-P</p>
