I think one thing you must pay attention to is the influence of the game on your so-called "walking".
If you accept the recommendation, you should know the competition information. Generally, three cups (Xinzhi Cup, Datong Cup, Tianyuan Cup) won the first, second and third prizes at the municipal level, and will be recommended to crowd out others. Pay special attention to the first two physical mathematics competitions and resume domestic science classes.
The difference between self-recommendation is that there is a lot of choice space and the pressure on the winner of the competition is much less. However, the pressure between non-competitors from all over Shanghai is even greater. There will definitely be a written test and an interview, both of which are very important. At that time, the interview was divided into English and Chinese, and the written test content was not simple. Both science and liberal arts should be good.
If both the written test and the interview are blockbuster, the answer will definitely not be missed. If it is not particularly outstanding, but it is also excellent, materials are very important.
I can't evaluate your material, but it's ok in school work, and the rest is not clear.
Finally, the attached middle school is really a good place for studying in the United States. Foreign universities often recruit students. In other words, a large number of people in the affiliated middle school are as determined to study in the United States as you are. There won't be too much study pressure and homework, but some people will succeed in the end, but the total number should be second only to foreign language high schools.
