sci-fit

separate

Use before any writing to stress-test whether a result clears Science's (AAAS) desk-reject filter — broad significance and general interest across disciplines. Decides Science vs Science Advances vs a specialist journal before you invest in prose.

When to use

• Deciding if Science is the right venue
• Choosing between Science, Science Advances, Nature, PNAS, and field journals
• Evaluating broad significance and general interest
• Assessing significance ladder rung
• Identifying fatal desk-reject triggers
• Scoring general-interest test with three independent readers

When not to use

• Writing prose
• Clinical/medical papers with patient outcomes
• Rationalizing specialist results with adjectives
• Confusing technical difficulty with significance
