How do you advise that we 'move on' after we get into a Uni course and forget about our ATAR and vce?

Hahahaha, set foot in university, that's how. Honestly, there is no great big transcendent process. You just enrol and stop giving a fuck.
✌️just do what makes you happy ✌️

Well once you're in Uni, no one ever cares about that thing called an "ATAR". The person next to you in the lecture doesn't say to you, "Oh, what'd yo get for an ATAR?"

Don't worry. I'm sure the transition into Uni will be fine for you. :)

If you don't feel like moving on, become a moderator on an Australian educational website and forum.

How do you advise that we 'move on' after we get into a Uni course and forget about our ATAR and vce?

1. Get wasted at all the events during O-week (pub crawls etc.).
2. Get wasted at all the balls (generally, faculties hold their own individual balls like the Commerce ball, don't really recommend the Engineering ball if you're a guy though - absolute sausage-fest).
3. Get wasted at all the pre-exam parties.
4. Get wasted at all the after-exam parties (AXPs).
5. Repeat steps 1-4.

Disclaimer: Plz drink responsibly. And note, you might lose a lot of money (and perhaps your dignity) in the process.

All this advice is coming from a guy who doesn't drink.

It's commonplace among scholars and gentlemen alcoholics.

Because at the end of the day the ATAR is just something you use to get to the course you want to do. It doesnt mean shit about you and who you are.

And sure no one is ashamed, but that doesnt mean you talk about it, because its mostly irrelevant. Most people forgot what they got by like 2nd year.

EDIT: Actually thats not true, some people might be ashamed because they think they could do better, but it doesnt matter as long as they got into what they wanted.

Why don't ppl talk about their ATARs in uni?

If you're sitting in a course with a clearly in of 92 no one in the course would be ashamed of their ATAR?

It's not a matter of being ashamed, it's a matter of "no one actually cares".

Well, it's similar to a Year 12 kid talking about his school grades from Year 9. People just don't care.
