The article was submitted on April 24th, sent for external review on May 17th, and rejected on July 1st. The reviewers did not raise any major issues and did not require any additional experiments. However, the editor did not provide any explanation and simply suggested submitting to BMJ Oncology, a journal that is not even indexed in SCI. This lack of respect for our work and the reviewers' opinions is unacceptable, and we will not be submitting to any BMJ-related journals in the future.

Where is the submission website? I can't access the one on the webpage.

Very efficient journal. Top journal in tumor immunology. The content is not complicated, but very novel, belonging to world-first class discoveries. The innovation is average, focusing on the types of biomarkers detected through proteomics analysis. The initial review process is very fast, with revisions given in less than a month. Then, revisions and additional experiments took nearly 2 months. The final review process is slow, taking almost 2 and a half months to receive acceptance. However, this period included Christmas and New Year holidays. The total time from submission to acceptance was over 6 months.

So, does the reviewer score determine whether the application is rejected or not?

So whatever the outcome is, is the "waiting reviewer assignment" still under internal review?

Is the editor strict about the word count and number of figures required for the first submission?

8-15 submitted, 8-26 awaiting reviewer assignment, 8-31 awaiting reviewer scores, 9-7 awaiting recommendation, don't know what's going on, it's been reviewed so quickly, feeling worried...

It has been a month for me and I am still in the same situation. It's too slow.

It has been a month since submitting the manuscript and it is still in the "Awaiting Section Editor Handling" status. How long did it take for everyone else?

I messed around with the submission system for a while, but it seems like the submission system provided on this website is no longer working. I found a new submission system on the journal's official website. You can try it out at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/jitc.

How long does it take for the status to change after "awaiting reviewer selection"?

Is it awaiting reviewer election? It's been a week and there has been no movement.

Submitted in mid-March this year, received revision comments in July, was given two months to make revisions, applied for an extension of an additional two months, submitted in early November, and was notified of acceptance of the article half a month later.
