good luck to all who undertake M.Sc & Ph.D .. paper publishing is not an easy task. dealing with international publisher/editor/reviewer takes a lot of patience.

for me - paper got reject is normal, paper got accepted is abnormal.

my latest paper, got rejected once, edit/modified and then resubmit

hurm, for me it is OK to target a non-ISI journal; easier to publish, less strict editor/reviewer. but my supervisor keep on insist to publish on those ISI journal. wants to keep up his records, don't want to publish in those journal without a high impact factor. pity for us students attempt to publish into those high impact factor journal usually resulted in paper rejection. as a result ---> morale down...

humiliation, rejection, sharp piercing to the heart comment;
that the barrier we authors need to face if we want to publish international papers.

means that 1 part of the research were split into few papers instead should be 1 part = 1 paper.
some kind of shortcut way to publish more papers but with limited data/experiment...

correct?

where as the foreign editor always straight to the point. no means no.

usually for publishing paper the university/supervisor/lecturer would require student to publish in International Journals.

for me, the requirement to complete my study is to publish 2 papers in any International Journal.

15 hours a week? that a lot of time..

then how do you can focus on your study?
which uni are you now?

If you are very interested in the field of your research, then by all means do proceed. I don't think research fellow would have a high salary compare to industrial job.

Alternatively, last time when I'm completed my master, I went to work in Intel, they accept fresh graduate even for M.Sc and Ph.D. Thing is, you'll need to go for multinational company if you want to be paid based on your master level. Some of the local company would not pay the supposedly amount for M.Sc graduate.

By the way, congratulations on your 1st publication and I wish you good luck for your both journal and your viva presentation in the near future.

rm3.5k for M.Sc fresh graduate. Currently I'm doing Ph.D.

im also stuck at 2nd stage...
