I have also been applying for almost a month now, and my application has been under review the whole time. I'm not sure what stage it has progressed to. How can I check in the new system?

Hello, may I ask why my submission has been under review for almost a month now? How can I check the progress of my submission?

This journal is really slow, it has been under review for three months without any updates.

May I ask if you are using the new system or the old system for submission?

Yes, Xiao Xiu's feedback was very positive, and the conclusion was that the paper was suitable for publication after minor revisions. The responses were also very detailed, addressing each point and highlighting them. However, the paper was rejected without any valid reasons.

Are you using the old system? Mine has been under review for three weeks.

What does it mean that "Assign Reviewers" has changed to "Under Consideration for Peer Review" from the beginning?

EIC: Not Assigned
ADM: Admin, WOA
ADM: Verma, Suwarna

How long does it take for the status "Awaiting EIC Assignment"?

(0) 讚！ | 王利1

As soon as it is submitted, it is under review. The old system also cannot see the submission, so I don't know what the current status is after 3 weeks.

The submission was made on January 25th, 2016, and a notice for major revisions was received on March 8th, with a two-month deadline. The revised manuscript was resubmitted on April 30th, and it was sent for review after about a week. The manuscript was accepted on May 23rd. In a hurry to graduate, I waited for three days before emailing the editor to inquire about the online publication speed. The editor responded that they could expedite the process, and on May 30th, I received the galley proof. The article was available on their journal's website on June 2nd. The publication fee seemed a bit expensive, but overall, everything else was fine. The editor was helpful and the process was relatively fast.

Can you give me a break? It's been 12 days pending decision, is there such a long pending decision? I want to ask.

I am speechless. I submitted my paper on March 28th, and it was under consideration for review, with reviewers being assigned, until May 14th. Finally, on May 14th, it showed "under review," and I thought things might be looking up. But then today, on the 16th, I checked again and it said "pending decision." It's almost certain that a decision has been made to reject it. So, what was I waiting for?

Submitted in mid-October 24.10, major revisions in early March 25.03, reviewer comments were relatively simple and revised on the same day, accepted after 7 days of minor revisions in early April.
