What is different about Ravensburg
Written and oral both have to pass
A strong written paper will not carry a weak oral here. Each part must reach a pass on its own for the certificate to be issued.
C1 is the university route
telc C1 runs locally and is the level German universities look for. In a town of 52,000 that is unusual - most send C1 candidates to Ulm or Konstanz.
Two providers, one lake region
inlingua examines in both Ravensburg and Friedrichshafen across A1 to C2, so a full date in one town may have space in the other.
