PRE-JOURNAL SUBMISSION REVIEW SERVICES
Tired of slogging through your students’ first drafts? Or third drafts?
(Tired of having your research adviser complain about your first draft?)
Then this service is FOR YOU
What you get
Mrs. McNamara’s reviews are intended both to develop a highly understandable paper and to help your author develop a stronger scientific writing style.
Your reviews will include grammar, spelling, and CONTENT. Comments will be written directly onto a hardcopy of the paper. Figures and captions will be critiqued and corrected. Improvements to logical flow and readability will be suggested as well. When necessary, alternate wording of sentences or paragraphs will be suggested. (However, if major reorganization is required, the author will need to rework that draft.)
Positive as well as negative comments well be included. Beautiful figures, elegant approaches, and exciting data are likely to be noted. Particularly excellent phrasing and well-explained arguments will be complimented.
How long will my review take?
Reviews will TYPICALLY be completed within 3-5 business days after receipt of your article.
If you need an EXPEDITED REVIEW (completed in less than 3 days), please inquire ahead as to Mrs. McNamara’s availability.
