<p>Let's say you know about 5-6 professors that teach at Harvard and your friends wife attended Harvard and so did her parents and sisters and all that. Do you think you can use them to your advantage anyway with admissions?</p>
<p>Short answer? No. I mean really, your friend’s wife and parents? How exactly do you plan on using that to your advantage? As for the professors, any difference would be negligible.</p>
<p>You might be able to better explain why you want to go to Harvard, but that’s as far as the “advantage” goes.</p>
