What is different about Chemnitz
No course needed for telc
SprachUnion states candidates can register without attending a language course first - worth knowing given how many centres nationally restrict entry to their own students.
The DTZ still needs the course
As elsewhere in Germany, sitting the DTZ requires prior integration course participation. BAMF-funded participants pay no exam fee.
Dresden and Leipzig are close
Both are about an hour away. Dresden has a Goethe-Institut and weekly telc sittings; Leipzig publishes a full price list including Goethe at B2, C1 and C2.

Booking is the easy half. Sit a full model test in the format you booked - Goethe, telc or DTZ - and let the analytics tell you which module needs the weeks between now and your date.
