No one cares about the ATAR because it's a flawed system. Equally, how well you do in your HSC (Atar) is no reflection to how smart you are in uni. The stuff you do in HSC is just basic. So don't boast because you'll struggle to make mates and lose out on the best part of uni - social aspect.

Good luck.

People who brag about their ATARs when they've finished school are just morons who are stuck in high school and don't know how to let go.

No, people don't care about ATAR at uni. You're in the course you hopefully wanted to do, go live life, make new friends with like-minded people.

a week after the ATAR comes out, two weeks tops
I know parents that bang on about what their kids got longer than this, but usually they are put in their place by someone (me) saying no one gives a shit.

2 weeks into uni no one would care.

I hated it when several weeks after it was released my parents still boasted to my cousins about my UAI (what it was called back then) and how it was so 'high' even though I was actually disappointed with my results lol.

it's something to be commended, but it's not something to boast about.

94 isn't that high, you'd be pretty idiotic and an arrogant prick to go around boasting that you scored 94, I mean, in the long run when you get a job, and go through uni, noone would give a stuff about it anymore.
Plus you also look like a cocky prick to rub it in others peoples faces,
To me personally people that go around showing off their 94 atar makes me feel less impressed about their achievement, I'd probably view a person in the 80's who was modest higher than a stuck up kid,
yeah I know this from a personal experience of a friend.
