What happens if someone knows your exam number?

    So someone knows my exam number

    I’ve already registered for the predicted grades with my exam number and everything already and I’ve confirmed my levels. Someone saw it after I had already done all of this.

    So could someone hack my account and change my levels or what could they do if they knew my exam number?

    I have no idea how this system works (given that it's all new) but weren't you asked to set up a password or anything?

    Can't see too many people even thinking of such a thing, let alone doing it, but I suppose there's always trolls out there.

    To log in you needed your exam number and pps. You also set a password. So it's highly unlikely that anyone could log into your account to change your levels now.

    Thank you, Pistachio. I was thinking it was unlikely that it was as simple as "know exam number, can change everything".
