This online quiz about ‘how do you know that a research paper is ready for journal submission’ is meant to be a decision tool for academics, PhDs, and researchers to know whether they should submit their paper. It is often difficult to know if you should submit your paper – there is a lot of ambiguity and uncertainty in the research process. This quiz is meant to help you decide if you should submit this paper.
Method:

Remember that this metric and tool has not been validated. At this moment, it is meant for joy of learning and having fun.
Privacy and Legal Stuff:
That being said, this is not based on research, and is only for fun only. Everything on the R3ciprocity community that aids research will be fully-vetted by Institutional Review Boards, and Ethics Board; and you will have consent.
At this moment, this is just for fun. By clicking and proceeding with the online survey, you realize and give consent that this is just for fun, and this data will not be used for research purposes, and this information will not be sold to third-parties.
