Grammar

would have scored - doesn´t seem to be a conditional

Hello Emotion: smile

Please could you tell me what kind of grammar this is? It doesn´t seem to be a conditional clause/sentence - either a "half of it". Please, would it be possible to give me another example so that I could understand it better?

Thank you very much!

Becka: Well, I can see how we would have scored quite highly on that scale, I think there is quite big emphasis.....
