In the first year of the 2017 new college entrance examination, Nanmo failed miserably, compared with the grand occasion of the opponent Qibao 14 600 and 152 570, Nanmo scored 595 with the highest score, the average score of the science and technology innovation class was 556 points, the overall average score was 530, and the number of admissions for the comprehensive evaluation ended with only 28 people, and the last number was 68 people in the previous year. In the face of the stormy reform of the college entrance examination, Nanmo acted slowly, blindly confident, and did not have the awareness of actively exploring and seeking change, and the students also followed the trend, which eventually led to falling out of the top ten. In 2018, Nanmo regrouped, and the number of finalists for the comprehensive evaluation of the resumption of the exchange reached 118 people, the results far exceeded last year, in addition to the four schools and the branches of the four schools, only Qibao had an absolute advantage in the old opponents of the past, and other schools such as Jianping and Kongjiang were still left behind by Nanmo, which can basically be called a full-blooded resurrection.

Nanmo was formerly known as the primary school affiliated to Nanyang Public School (now Xi'an Jiaotong University and Shanghai Jiao Tong University), which has a history of more than 100 years. It is located in the core area of Xujiahui, with its proud history, known for its quality education, and is favored by Jiaotong University every year. Until the "hillbilly" Qibao Middle School beat the master to death, Nanmo has always stood firmly at the top of the echelon of the eight schools except for the four schools. The experimental class is divided into science and technology class and science class, the science class almost omits the basic part of mathematics, focuses on the difficult points, must do the subject every semester and participate in at least one competition; The science and technology innovation class cooperates with Jiaotong University to run a school, and every Wednesday there are professors from different majors of Jiaotong University to give popular science lectures, and the second year of high school also has the opportunity to go to the United States to participate in astronaut system training. The amount of homework in Nanmo is ranked among the best in the city, and some students responded that "do homework at night until the Champions League game begins", and even the upper and lower subjects are brushing up on the questions and writing homework. The mathematics test is taken every few weeks in the first year of high school, and the second year of high school is implemented every week, with a large number of homework encrypted set exams, and the learning rhythm is relatively intense. It is worth noting that the teachers of Nanmo are luxurious, and there are more than 60 super senior teachers in the whole school, but there are not a few teachers who are fishing in troubled waters and lack of strength, especially the old teachers, who are mostly free-range to students, and are not responsible enough for high school students who are not strong in self-discipline. In addition, some students reported that the school has a poor attitude towards students who go abroad, because outstanding students do not participate in the college entrance examination, which is very likely to affect the comprehensive evaluation acceptance rate and 985 rate, and they will be lazy when issuing transcripts and related materials.

Basketball and symphony have also brought countless glory to Nanmo. Nanmo has built a high-standard professional court, and recruited basketball specialists nationwide, and the overall level dominates Shanghai, has won the championship 18 times, and can also rank in the top four in the country. Symphony is also a major feature of Nanmo, which often participates in performances and cultural exchange activities around the world on behalf of the school, and has won the first place many times, and exports the most high art students every year. In the last semester, there are military training or agriculture, class song competition, Youth League Committee student union recruitment, club recruitment, Nanmo Cup, art festival, in the second half of the year, continue to Nanmo Cup, biennial community cultural festival, wisteria cup, charity sale, career experience, science and technology festival, etc., there are more than 20 clubs to choose from, and the annual club recruitment is held around November. However, the atmosphere of Nanmo is relatively conservative, and the school activities are booming, but it does not support the club to go out to participate in activities, and if you insist on going your own way, you may be abolished by the school.

The school building in Nanmo has not been built recently, but there are not many accommodation beds, which cannot meet the accommodation needs of all students. Generally speaking, students in suburbs such as Jinshan, Qingpu, Jiading, and Nanhui can apply for accommodation, while students in central cities are advised to go to school. A bedroom with six beds and air conditioning, but the toilet and bathroom are on each floor facing north, and there are a total of five places for bathing, separated by a wall, and each position has a plastic curtain, which can be counted as one person per room. However, the school stipulates that the first and second years of high school need to take a shower before 18:00 after school in the evening, and cannot take a bath after evening self-study. There are no restrictions in the third year of high school, you can take a bath at any time, and you will not turn off the lights or power at night. The school canteen has few choices, the taste is not good, the basic heavy oil and salt, and the teaching building is far away from the canteen.

The quality of key high schools in Xuhui District is strong, and the competition in the high school entrance examination is extremely fierce. Although the outstanding students in the district have been pinched by the other three schools, the parallel volunteer score of Nanmo over the years is above 585, and the zero volunteer score is also high, and the level of students is naturally very good. In addition to the 2017 landslide, Nanmo's college entrance examination results have always been stable, it has always had a long-standing intimate relationship with Shanghai Jiaotong University, so the number of admissions to Jiaotong University every year has been fruitful, in 2016, the number of admissions to Jiaotong University was only in Shangzhong, Hua Er and Qibao, ranking fourth in the city, a total of 39 admissions. Nanmo self-recruitment is five subjects with the same exam, and the time is 3 hours.
