Does anyone know of a Questbridge Finalist accepted to Harvard?
Alas, no. Harvard puts the Quest in Questbridge. A bridge too far, perhaps? Ok, I will stop now.
In all seriousness, best of luck to all those questing for Harvard.
Yes; went to Yale
@scoutsmom, would you happen to know the student’s stats? I.e. GPA, SAT, etc.
Not sure if knowing his stats is helpful, since it was so long ago, but I copied my post when he became a finalist with his stats below.

in Finalists: Post your stats. Comment by scoutsmom October 2010
Pretty impressive stats, @scoutsmom. Thanks for replying.
Son was QB finalist this year and accepted to Harvard and other 4 ivies he applied to… it happens!
Wow! Congratulations, @Dobsieguide. Could you please post his stats for comparison purposes?
2240 SAT… can’t remember the rest…
On the FB group there’s a list of QB students you can contact at each college – there are 15 listed at Harvard just for this year and last year–I’m sure there are many more since none of the Questies I know at Harvard are on the list. It’s harder to estimate these numbers since Harvard isn’t a QB school but if you search the group you’ll find the threads where Harvard admits are posting. If you haven’t joined the group, do so and you’ll be able to contact current Questies at Harvard.
@honeybee63. Thanks for replying to my post. I’ll look at the FB group, but I don’t think I’ll be able to do much as I don’t have a FB account. Is there any other way I could contact the Questies at Harvard?
@DominicBayer, you won’t be able to join the group without being on FB. I’ll ask one of the admins if I can give you the list of Harvard contacts. It shouldn’t be a problem since they’ve all volunteered as contacts/mentors. I’ll PM you with a list if all goes well 
@honeybee63. Thanks for the tips and for being so helpful!
