What journals? How many first authored? Citations?
 
I think you are okay for EB-EA....are you gonna aplly through a lawyer? I would not suggest self petition even though lots of people have been sucessful. Use a GOOD lawyer and get GOOD recco letters. In EB1-EA i think what puts you apart from most people is the recco of eminent people in your field and outside it. Try and get from places that are nationally recognized (eg. NIH, Los Alamos, Berkley, MIT, Yale, Harvard etc etc) depending on your field. Dont care if you have to beg borrow or steal.... :) . I had 7 reccos but five of them were from national institutes like NIH, Howard Huges Inst. Med. Res. and Yale. Also the reccos should be as far as possible very strong not just cursory support. They should be from different places as possible both overseas and USA. You have to convince the reccommenders of that. Reccos take the longest time to collect but I feel they are the mainstay of an EB-1 EA application. I doubt if the officer even goes very much beyond the reccos. They have very little time to approve the applications and they will look at obvious short cuts to determine your viability as a EB-1 EA. If I were an INS officer thats what I would look at. Thats my 0.02$......good luck with your application.
