Display How to run "finger" command in an if statement?

I have been trying to run the finger command in a if statement but its giving me a bunch of errors.
Code:
gidlistTemp="g274gG;g2759C;g28320;g2885G;g2A276;g23338;g2A5h5;g2A307"
for i in $(echo $gidlistTemp| tr ';' ' \n')
do
        tst=(finger $i | wc -l)
        if [$tst != 0]
        then
                gidlist=$gidlist$i
        fi
done

How do I fix this?
