PeerJ Prestigious?

Hey guys,
I've been working on publishing my college senior thesis for about a year (I'm a second year medical student now). I recently had it accepted in PeerJ.

I'm obviously very proud of this accomplishment, and it took a lot of work. But I also know PeerJ might not be the most prestigious. Would you guys ever think twice about putting that on your resume? Or should I extol it loud and proud?

It's in PubMed, and with a impact factor of 2.1, you're well ahead of the curve for UG students. So definitely put it in your app!

That and most fancy academic doctors have resumes with a number of bogus items under presentations or publications. So, and publication is worth listing until you have so many you don't need it (or so so many that you trust know one will notice that you have publications in unknown journals).

If I ever see an applicant list a publication, I immediately check it on PubMed.
