I admit to not knowing what the music medal curriculum is.
SecondTry makes some very good points, especially about the "fine line".
I believe that there are certain problems the clarinet itself creates, simply because of the way it's constructed. One example may be using the middle finger right hand hole (B/F#). It is harder to use that finger instead of the first finger (Bb/F) when playing scales or fast passages, or sometimes from going from that note elsewhere that requires more than one finger changing (if that makes sense...).
As well, I think each player may have his/her own set of problems that may differ from others. For me, trilling with my right pinky is harder that with my left pinky.
I spent some time years ago developing specific exercises to address those problems. But these may be better suited for me than for you, who knows.
If you come upon a particularly difficult finger pattern to perfect, maybe make an exercise out of it.
