ok

we got the pin number a while back at school, in the letter, where we had to peel the little tab off it
am i correct??

we need this pin to find our results, not our UAI?

i lost my pin and the only solution i can find is to mail a copy of my drivers licence to the BOS, then they will contact me

is there any other way around it??

i think that pin was for uac...the one where you pull off the tab and place it on a white background, if so, then that is for the uac not the bos.

the peel off tab was for UAC sorry. I lost mine as well (the hsc PIN to get onto student online) but the BoS sent me a letter a little while ago as a 'reminder' it had the pin in massive bold font in the middle of the letter, did you get this?

If all else fails, just wait for your hard copy to be sent to you, it sux, but yea...

Doesn't a basic summary letter come two days after and a detailed one in January?

I read it in an old HSC forum. I don't know, I hope it's true!
And I have tried calling them, the lines are closed until tomorrow. :confused: :mad:

19th December is arse-looking photocopy folded and shoved in a standard 55c envelope.

Mid January is formal shiny looking fancy one.

Thanks for that.
There's no issue with the UAI - I have my pin for that etc. I just want to know what my actual HSC marks are, as soon as possible!

If you genuinely lose your BOS PIN then call 13 11 12 after 8 am on Wednesday, 17 December. They will ask you heaps of questions, but WILL give you your PIN.

The letter with the pull-off tag was the UAC PIN, which is entirely different to the BOS PIN.

If you confuse the wrong PIN you will get blacklisted from the HSC results site for a period of time.
