I have just realized that many professors in my school paid indexed journals so that they can publish their shits.
This is why they have so many papers published but none of them actually has any impact or is meaningful in science.
What the actual fuck? The school is ranked pretty high due to the publication rate. This is a fucking joke. Academy is a fucking joke.

Rephrase everything you said because it doesn't make a lick of sense in English.

Poorly written but yes.
all journals charge to publish

>what is arxiv

So basically you have to pay them to publish and you have to pay them to read?
>>8142443
No they don't. Only predatory journals charge to publish.
>>8142455
Not really true. There are many highly respected indexed journals that will happily let you pay them.
>>8142455
any respectable journal will have you pay them to review your article and maybe publish it. Source: i'm a physics graduate student with 3 published articles.

Paying for review is not paying to be published. You can pay for review and not be accepted. Paying to be published means you will be published as long as you pay, which is predatory publishing.
>>8142455
Most of them do. It's just that your university or fund-giver is expected to cover the costs.

>Paying to be published means you will be published as long as you pay,
Nope.
>>8142864
Yes. Paying for sex doesn't mean you might have sex.

Shitty papermills exist, but "reputable" journals will be happy to take your money for the time to look at your shit and then reject you anyway. Charging does not guarantee you can buy your place.
>>8142890
You're not paying to publish, your paying for submission to a journal.
Your analogy is shit.
>>8142448
Not a journal
