Admission to Oxford in Mathematics and preparation for that as a german student?

Hello everyone!
I'm currently 17 years old and in the 12th grade (I'm going to the 13th grade) in Germany.
I'm doing very well at school (average grade 1.18) and I'm also doing a junior degree in maths at the University of Hamburg.
I have already completed Linear Algebra I and II with a grade of 2 and Analysis I and II with a grade of 3.7. Unfortunately, the last one is so bad because it was very demanding and I had to do a lot for school at the same time. I'm now taking algebra in the winter semester.
In addition to watching English videos, I've also started taking English lessons with native speakers for the last two months to improve my English skills.
I have been looking into studying in England before, especially Oxford.
I have already read some experiences and tips here in this forum, but not 100% of what I would like to know.
I still have about a year to go before I have to apply to Oxford.

- I would like to get an assessment of whether it is at all possible for me to be accepted at Oxford?
- I would also like to know how I can best prepare myself within this year?
- In particular, how to prepare for the MAT test, but also whether any special activities (extracurricular activities) would look good on my CV (voluntary work, etc.) or whether there is any special preparation for the MAT test?
- Additionally, would I be grateful for any good resources (books, videos, courses, workshops) on how to prepare for interviews, essay writing, the MAT test, etc.?
- Are there any specific events from Oxford that might be helpful?
- Is an assessment by a teacher from my school also necessary or helpful?
- Are there any other comments, important aspects and/or tips you can give me from your experience regarding acceptance to Oxford?

I am largely aware of the risks or disadvantages of such a study programme from posts here in the forum, for now it's just a matter of how to best prepare for it.
Many thanks in advance!

Presumably you have applied as the MAT registration date has passed. Given that, the only important thing now is preparing for the MAT and doing past papers (in a sensible fashion) is the best way to approach the MAT.

I won't register for the MAT until a year from now because I won't be able to apply until then.
Do you think I should just prepare for the MAT until then in the one year? Is that the most important thing?
