Re: [pakgrid] Re: European Journal of Scientific Research [Review Required]

Dear Wasif,

I would strongly advise against publishing in any journal that asks for payment to publish - unless it is a reputable publisher and the money is for either excess page charges or to enable open access. The journal in question seems to be a pay to publish journal which is likely to add little value to your CV and academic record. You note that it is no longer recognised by HEC. I don't know much about how HEC sets up its recognition processes but, given that it is no longer recognised, should also give an indicator that it is perhaps not the right venue.

Kind regards,

Awais.
