Description

You spend months writing a manuscript, submit it—and three days later receive a rejection letter with no review comments. The editor-in-chief didn't even send it out for peer review; it was a desk rejection. 「SCI Desk Reject Pre-check」offers the initial screening perspective of a seasoned handling editor, helping you ensure quality before submission. What does it check? 📌 Journal Fit — Whether the topic aligns with the target journal's scope 🔍 Novelty and Contribution — Can the editor-in-chief identify your core contribution in 30 seconds? ⚗️ Methodology and Reproducibility — Design flaws and description gaps that trigger red flags 📊 Statistics and Quantitative Reporting — Issues in data presentation, significance, sample size, etc. 🛡️ Research Integrity and Ethics — Ethics approval, conflicts of interest, plagiarism check, AI disclosure, data availability 📝 Structure and Readability — Broken logic chains, weak abstracts, buried key information 🌐 English Language Risk — Whether language quality might trigger a language-based desk rejection All issues are categorized as 'Fatal / Major / Minor', each with actionable revision suggestions. Suitable for any SCI discipline: physics, chemistry, materials, engineering, life sciences, computer science, environment, geosciences, and more. Send your manuscript (or abstract + methods section) and start the check.
