Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ram Sabaratnam" data-source="post: 189764" data-attributes="member: 36738">Hiya [USER=35580]@lawyersum[/USER] I completely agree with [USER=36740]@Amma Usman[/USER] here. Either of these approaches could work really well to answer the question and showcase your skills. That said, as Amma suggests, I’d also lean towards the first option. It’s such a unique and impressive achievement, and one that’s genuinely difficult to accomplish! Beyond highlighting the resilience it took to finally have your submission published, you can also use this opportunity to demonstrate how you improved your research and writing skills to achieve a publishable standard. I wanted to suggest some ideas that you might want to explore to help you shape your answer whilst addressing the question:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Topic Formation: Publishing often requires making a meaningful contribution to the "existing literature" in a field. Compared to your earlier attempts, how did you approach selecting a topic this time? As you mentioned, you found a topic idea this time to write about, but how did you do this? Did you consult with anyone (e.g. a professor, a colleague) to pinpoint under-explored areas? Did you examine past issues of the journal to identify gaps or overlooked themes in their previous publications? Highlighting how your approach to topic formation evolved will help make this answer address the question. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Research Strategies: Did you adopt any new methods for conducting research? For example, if the topic was law-related, did you deepen your engagement with case reasoning or secondary scholarship? Did you need to master any new skills, such as quantitative or qualitative analysis, or refine how you identified and distinguished credible sources? Share how you revamped your research process to elevate your work, as research often requires particular skills and this question lends itself well to demonstrating how you did this. </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Editing and Feedback: Finally, you might want to discuss how you improved your ability to edit and refine your writing to ensure it met a publishable standard. For instance, did you take a new approach to sharing drafts with others for feedback? How did you incorporate suggestions or address challenges raised by editors? If you worked with editors, did you adapt how you responded to their comments or tackled revisions?</li> </ul>Again, these are just a few angles to consider when drafting your answer and reflecting on how you persevered through initial rejections to eventually achieve the publication. Best of luck with your application! 😊</blockquote>
