Acceptance rates for manuscripts submitted to veterinary peer-reviewed journals in 2012.
Relatively few journals publish their annual acceptance rate, although this figure is of scientific and academic interest. ⋯ With so few manuscripts accepted without revision, prospective authors must expect to expend time and effort revising and resubmitting their manuscripts for publication. Although authors are frequently able to correct manuscript flaws identified by reviewers, the knowledge that less than half submitted manuscripts are accepted might help stimulate prospective authors to try to submit better quality manuscripts.
