Absolutely not neccessary, better have something special going for you though. Family relations, meritorious acheivement, or lotsa money works too. Most do NOT have straight "A's" it is OK to challenge yourself beyond what you know. Take the most difficult courses offered and prove you're up for a challenge. Family relations and money (once considered important) are no longer viable excuses. It is just tough odds to get into a school which has 25,000+ applicants and only has 1,600 or so spots available. Do the math.. even perfect scores are not enough. It is not my intention to discourage anyone. Just be realistic with your expectations. If you have really good grades and test scores, have taken tough classes and challenges outside the classroom, have participated in activities or other learning opportunities (in leadership roll preferred), can write at a high level and perhaps have an extracurricular which would benefit the vast number of offerings at Harvard, then give it a try. Rich or poor, connected or not doesn't matter. If you fit you'll get in. If not, there are many other schools who would love to have you. I'd say that straight A's help, but are nowhere NEAR enough to get Harvard acceptance. You have to build a strong record across pretty much everything - from extracurriculars/clubs to academics to standardized test scores to essays/short answers to teacher recommendations. Ultimately, the #1 thing you must do is show a clear passion for something, and excellence in that passion.
