Hi,

Well, I received an email form them too yesterday offering to publish my dissertation - I guess they didn't figure out from their search that what they were offering to publish has already been published in a journal. I conducted some research on them and just googling them turned up a lot of negative reviews and information regarding them. They do not peer review the submissions - they print it exactly as it is, hence the credibility of the research is greatly reduced due to this. Furthermore, your research is not likely to be accepted for publication by a peer-reviewed journal as lap-publishing obtains the copyright. From what I came to know, they do turn your thesis into an attractive book and sell it for around 100 dollars on Amazon, but so far, no author has yet received any royalties from this sale as no one has bought their books. Bottom line - publishing your thesis with them is not likely to enhance your academic career - rather it may be questioned due to their lack of credibility.

Done - hope this helps - good luck!

Well done, Satchi - Congratulations! It must be such a relief to have finally submitted! It has been a pleasure following your posts on this forum - you've always been helpful, positive and encouraging and I am really happy for you :). No tips for the viva though (sorry), as I haven't reached that stage yet! Just wanted to congratulate you on submitting :). Good luck with your viva!

Done - good luck!

I am with catalinbond on this - we were not required to submit ALL our raw data - a sample of it was sufficient. Perhaps you could ask your supervisor if it would be acceptable for you to include only the most significant parts and leave out the rest?

Thanks for your input! Appreciate it.

Just wondering :

Do reviewers get paid to review potential journal articles?

What are the advantages and disadvantages of being a reviewer?

Any thoughts on this???

Thanks!
