publication question
Hey guys, I was just wondering if you could offer me some quick advice. I'm a 2L at a T25 law school and am not on law journal. I submitted my seminar paper to about 25 specialty law journals at other schools throughout the countries for publication consideration. I received an offer from another school that's in the top 50 and was given an acceptance deadline for about a week from now. I've requested that the other, higher ranked journals (i.e. T14) expedite their decisions so that I may be able to make an informed decision by my deadline. So basically, I'm wondering if I should hold off on accepting this offer by the time the deadline comes up if I haven't heard from the rest or should I just count my blessings and accept that someone wants to publish my work? Thanks so much.

Re: publication question
If you asked for an expedited review, then you need to give them time to do the review. You have an offer to publish and a deadline - you can take all the way up to the deadline if you want.daylight wrote:Hey guys, I was just wondering if you could offer me some quick advice.
