12:29: Paper accepted!!! The moment the paper was accepted, I felt a wave of relaxation.
12:30: Author proofreading
1.1: Website online!!! The end, sprinkling flowers
The editor was very responsible and communication was prompt whenever there were issues. One reviewer provided 18 suggestions (all of which were very constructive and greatly improved the quality of my paper), while another provided 8 suggestions (a bit lacking, but 2 of them were useful. One suggestion was not very practical). In the end, the paper was successfully accepted, and I hope for a successful year in 2026 as my student career comes to a close with a shower of flowers.

I submitted a special issue focusing on robots. The first round of reviews suggested major revisions, but overall the feedback was positive. After working on revisions for 8 days, I resubmitted the paper and it was quickly accepted. 
Although this year has been challenging in terms of publications, I have put in a lot of effort. I will continue to work hard as I move on to my second year of graduate school.

6.26 submission
6.27 under review
7.24 major revisions (comments from three reviewers, two minor revisions and one major revision)
7.28 resubmission
8.1 acceptance
8.2 proofreading (transferred to domestic editor for formatting)
8.4 online (payment made on the same day, online at night)
Two of the three reviewers provided very professional and detailed comments, while the third reviewer had few comments but was very positive about the paper. (Although the journal's impact factor is not high, maintaining a rigorous and standard academic attitude is an essential quality for every scholar.)
I will soon enter my second year of graduate school, and this is my first SCI paper. Although the journal's impact factor is not high, I will aim for a higher impact factor for my next submission.

The first external review suggested major revisions and requested resubmission within a week. The editor then directly accepted the manuscript on the 23rd.

Another post was deleted, but the consequences are unpredictable. Hopefully, good luck will come. The previous post was submitted about 20 days ago. This one was submitted on 5.26, with an update on 5.27. A major revision will be done on 6.12, followed by a return for further revision on 6.16. The final review will be on 6.17, and a minor revision will be done on 6.20 with same day return. Waiting for the results.

Thanks to the sharing of the submission timeline for journals, I would also like to share my submission process here.

Received Date: May 19, 2025
Revised Date: June 9, 2025 (First review comments on July 6)
Accepted Date: June 13, 2025

There were 18 major revisions suggested, and the reviewer had clearly read through the paper and provided meaningful feedback. The journal's impact factor may not be high, but regardless of the journal, scholars should always approach academic papers with care and professionalism.

This article was urgently needed and managed to meet the submission deadline. Good luck to everyone.

The submission made on 3.28 is still under review. I emailed the editor to inquire about the progress but have not received a response. I have a feeling it may be rejected.
