Language competence based on number of years studied at school

Unless your Abitur certificate expressly states the language level you have achieved, it is not possible to use it to demonstrate foreign language competence at levels B2 - C2. Validity of language certificates: as stated on the particular document/ certificate.

through until year 11

If you did your Abitur in year 13 (G9)
