Peer Reviewer - Worth Mentioning?

[BroncosCountry12]

Hi everyone,

Over the last few years, I have been invited to be a peer-reviewer for a few different journals (decent IF: ~5 or 6 for all of them). I was wondering if this is a significant enough experience to mention in my application. I don't think I'll list this as a whole new activity, but is it worth using some of the precious characters in one of my research sections to talk about this a little? I'm not sure how unique of an experience this is.

(P.S. If I do put it on the application, is it okay to name drop the journals I reviewed for or is that meant to be confidential?)

Thank you!

You can include it as a line in the research activity description, and maybe name drop the most prestigious journal. That said, it is not a huge deal so dont waste that space if there is something better to put
