I finally got my co-authored paper submitted to a very high impact (35+) journal. Can I say submitted/accepted for peer review on app? I hear that this journal typically accepts less than 18% for peer review. It will be a few months of revision before everything is final and published which could take up until March.
You can’t say a paper was accepted unless it’s actually been accepted. If it is accepted, then you can update your applications.
But you could say you did the research and submitted the paper.
Saying it is submitted won’t carry much weight – one can “submit” work of any caliber. You can describe your research, who you worked with with etc. and mention you are working towards getting it published but I would not mention any specific journal until it is accepted. If your article is accepted it would be a nice update to send colleges.
It’s been accepted for peer review but not for publication. Publication of these papers takes a long time especially in the journal I’m submitting to
