I don't know, but I'm guessing there's a big difference between knowing how to play your scales and playing perfectly evenly and fluidly.

Correct. The conservatory music exams require scales to be played from first level to last level.

However each level demands faster tempo, evenness in volume, and a smooth “pulse” (like BB gun pellets hitting a wall)
