Academic journals follow strict standards for publication; probably because they serve as a platform for budding authors to get recognition for their research work. The probability of facing rejection in the first attempt is rather high, especially when you are targeting an SCI indexed, Impact Factor journal. The other possibility is receiving a long list of modifications with an indication of “getting accepted with changes”. If you get through journal editors and peer reviewers in the first attempt, you deserve a big round of applause!
Our team of expert writers and editors can help you make a mark in the academic fraternity by helping you through the paper publishing process. Whether it’s an IEEE Conference presentation or manuscript publication to an International High Impact Factor Journal, we have a resourceful team of consultants, who can assist you throughout the process.
If you have ever tried to get a research paper or article published in an international Scopus or ISI indexed journal, you would be familiar with the rigorous evaluation process that is followed. Here is an insight to the list of steps:
Keep a few things in mind while submitting the manuscript. First, the manuscript has been written and edited for minute errors (spelling and grammar) and major errors (conceptual, graphical, and formats). Second, the cover letter should convince the editor professionally, not pleadingly. Third, check the target journal’s guidelines for manuscript and cover letter, both.
The first process of reviewing manuscripts by the journal editorial board is brief. The editors go through the manuscript roughly where the main focus remains the abstract of the research and the bibliography part. Based on the abstract, the editors get the idea of the research, and if found interesting enough, the manuscript moves to the second round of review.
The initial screening by the editors will be followed by a thorough scan by peer reviewers. They ascertain the value of the paper in terms of authenticity of content, language, presentation and originality of thought. They advise the editors on the suitability of a paper for publication in the concerned journal and provide suggestions for improvement in the paper.
Once the peer review has been done, the editors send back the paper with final comments, which may be positive or negative. They may suggest some modifications in the paper and agree to publish it with changes. Or they may refer some other journal in case the paper is not appropriate for the target readers of the journal. Outright rejection is the worst case scenario.
The review comments provided by the editors and reviewers need to be adequately addressed before the paper is sent for resubmission. It is advisable at this stage to consult experienced authors and academicians for their valuable inputs.
We, at Fivevidya, offer assistance right from writing the paper to making modifications and resubmissions. Our team will stand by you and make sure that you successfully get published in a reputed journal. Send us your requests and get published without delay.
