Thanks Dr Aamir

Perhaps we will need to verify any students publications for RCS and thesis submission via this Web link.

In fact I have also seen cases where students sent papers to non SCOPUS / isi journals.

Many thanks for your concern.

Dear Colleagues
 
Recently, I have seen many students publishing in journals with fake impact factor. Unfortunately, many journals from well reputed publishers, display impact factors calculated by themselves or some source other than ISI. The correct way to check the journal impact factor is NOT from the journal website but rather from the ISI JCR (Journal Citation Reports) website.
 
ISI JCR website can be accessed from the following website (check for the link in top bar for “Journal Citation Reports”):
 
Or go directly to:
