C1 level

Which one is correct? People seem to be using both of them.

I've just made it up to level B2 in German, but I'd like to reach level C1.

Or

I've just made it up to a B2 level in German, but I want to reach a C1 level.

Do you use definite or indefinite articles when speaking about levels in languages? Some people also put the word 'level' first.

Would it be: I'm currently at a C1 level/ at the C1 level/ at level C1/ at a level C1?

Sorry to bother you with my silly questions.

Thank you.

Think of it as rungs on a ladder. Each rung is identified by a unique label. So it could be called by its level: i.e. "Level B1." Similarly in an airport or train station, we say your flight departs from gate B-34 or the train to Frankfurt leaves from track 34A.
