What are the attributes of a star student?

Question

Graduate student, in this case. There was an article about this in the chronicle a while ago, but I can't find it. It was a list of five things. Somelike like: "1. "Everyone in the department knows the student" and 4 other things.

Answer 1

I would say: get to know you teachers, your fellow students, be a people person, develop some contacts, know who to go to for action in your department. You must be able to research and write for yourself. Do your own original work and thinking. Must have good time management skills. Must be "adventurous" and innovative, but quite dedicated to your field and supporting fields. In today's world, some disciplines are changing so fast that the new professional's knowledge is absolete in a matter of very little time! Must have good timely sources. Have one plan of action and stick to it. Don"t use the scatter gun approach and go every where at once. If you must have options later on, plan for them. Just don't let them happen. Be realistic about your strengths and weaknesses. Grade points DO MATTER, but HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY! Your reputation comes first as a scholar and a student. Your colleagues will know who is the best. I graduated in the top 5% of my university class. Part of it comes naturally, but you do have to apply yourself and adapt to different times.
