Sam Tsao '24
Cornell University
What excites me most about college is the sheer breadth of opportunities that Cornell offers alongside a strong network of mentors. Millbrook prepared me well for my next steps by helping me develop a strong work ethic and the ability to manage multiple commitments at once. My time at Millbrook also pushed me to be an independent learner, encouraging me to take initiative in subjects that interest and challenge me, and to seek help when needed.
EDUCATOR'S INSIGHT
In every course he has taken at Millbrook, Sam holds himself to the highest standards and demands the very best of himself. According to his teachers, Sam is a standout student who elevates the discussions in every single class, asking excellent questions that demonstrate his curiosity. If he doesn’t know something, he finds out about it. He is relentless in his pursuit of knowledge.
