The student generally bows at 45 degrees to greet a sensei. If the sensei is a very senior instructor, s/he has to bow 90 degrees.

What a student of Shotokan karate should do to be a good student of karate?

Mind your sensei(s) and listen to what they have to say. Don't strive to be great, but to be perfect. To be perfect is the best long term goal to set because even though it can never be achieved, it keeps you trying your best as if you were to almost achieve perfection. When you do something wrong, don't get mad, take a break, then try it again. Just remember what Funakoshi Sensei said, "The ultimate aim in the art of karate-do lies not in victory or defeat, but in the perfection of the character of its participants." Also, do what you know is the right thing to do, for this is the meaning of karate-do.
