Apr 6, 2016 at 20:55 comment added Andrei Smolensky For the second block of questions — this definitely depends more on a specific student rather than on whether he is a graduate or not. Some people need advising, some prefer to work on their own. The goal is to become someone who can mostly work without other's help, but you don't just magically transform into one the moment you graduate.
Apr 6, 2016 at 20:44 comment added PVAL There are very successful advisors at both ends of the spectrum for the second question, and a similar thing is probably true for the first question. I'd imagine this depends hugely on the student, and perhaps how much background the student needs to know to do research on a specific problem. I'm sure some of the very smart and successful people on this site have some insight and opinions a lot of people will agree with, yet I still feel this is close to purely opinion based.

Apr 6, 2016 at 20:22 comment added Stefan Kohl I think this question is pretty broad. -- Could you maybe narrow it down a bit?
