What is different about Kempten
Each date has its own cut-off
The vhs prints an Anmeldeschluss beside every sitting rather than applying one blanket rule. Read the date you are booking, not the last one you saw.
Email registration accepted
You can register at the counter or by email to the examination centre - unusual in Bavaria, where in-person and cash is the norm.
C1 runs locally
telc C1 sits in Kempten rather than München, which saves a two-hour trip each way for the level most employers and universities ask about.

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.
