If your PTE score falls short
A completed degree taught in English is on the accepted list, and applicants from countries with English as an official, educational or native language need not submit proof with their application, though different rules apply to some countries. Applicants to Advanced and Computational Mathematics with comparable documents are assessed individually.
Requirements vary by programme and change between admissions cycles. The score that binds you is the one on your TU Chemnitz programme page and in your offer letter, so check it there before you book a test.
