Introducing the most common type of journal decision

After submitting a paper to a journal, it is common for authors to hope that the journal editor will accept their paper as is, without any changes. However, the most common journal decision is not accept or reject – it is revise and resubmit, where the journal editor shares reviewer comments/suggestions and asks you to make changes wherever applicable. Based on his experiences as a peer reviewer and journal editor, Prof. Mcloughlin introduces you to this reality and talks about how you, as an author, need to be prepared for this decision.

Did you also know that even though authors wouldn’t want their papers to be rejected outright, they also often dread the revise and resubmit decision? In some cases, this might be because they might not have enough time to make the revisions the reviewers are recommending. At other times, they might find reviewer comments difficult to understand or perceive them incorrectly.

What if we told you that there is a time-tested method to approach journal editor and reviewer comments in a way that would benefit you? In the following lectures, Prof. Mcloughlin talks about how you can approach the dreaded revise and resubmit decision and impress the journal editors and reviewers.

Stay tuned!
