The concrete forms of the two are not exactly the same:
1. The Shanghai Musicians' Association takes the grading examination once a year (August), while the Shanghai Conservatory of Music takes the grading examination twice a year (February and July).
2. The grading track of Shanghai Musicians Association is published about 3 months before the exam, which varies from year to year. The track of the Shanghai Conservatory of Music is the same every time.
3. The certificate of music theory is required for the Shanghai Conservatory of Music to pass Grade 6 or above, but not for the Shanghai Musicians Association.
Both grades belong to amateur piano grades.
