about Chem Review
There seems to be a misconception about Chem Review and Accounts of chemical Research among chinese fellows. Many people think that publishing in Chem Review is a big deal because of the high impact factor of the journal. I used to think like that and I thought Chem Review was by inivtation only. That actually is wrong. I have seen people submit and get accepted by chem review not by invitation. In fact, Some people published in chem rev like 2 times in 3 years. Accounts of chem Res. may be for the invited only because my boss hold an inivtation for the last 5 years. He had shown me the letter and supposely he may put my name on it. However, he claimed that he did not have time for it now. So, to sum it up, Account of Chem Res may be more prestigious than chem review which is contrary to common believe formed by simply judging from their respective impact factors.
