Rest with a level of activity to keep good blood flowing through the head. Exercise should not be started until all symptoms have resolved. Then, as you say, graded exercise to stay below the threshold of symptoms returning. You are still early in your recovery.

There is no way to predicts recovery periods. 85% recover in 6 weeks. The rest can be varied.

Probably, but partying will never help. I was instructed by my neuro back in 1971 when I had my first cognitive decline that I should stay away from alcohol. When I tried a single glass of beer, I was messed up for the whole next day.
Just remember, once concussed, always concussed. You may recover to normal in normal situations but you will likely be sensitive to stressors that can cause symptoms to return.
