It took me five months to revise from major to minor changes, and it has been another two months just to revise a few sentences. The reviewers are really disgusting.

May I ask how long it takes for the status to change to RC after you return from major repairs? I returned on April 25th, and the status changed twice in May before remaining unchanged for 11 days. Thank you.

May I ask if the completion of your review on 3.4 means that the final RC time was on 3.4? My RC has changed twice after that and has been ongoing for 11 days. Thank you very much for your response.

Manchester City snails, a reviewer ran away in the middle, wasting two months, after multiple revisions and edits, the editor finally decided to accept it, only to make a few changes, and then sent it for review again. Are you playing around? Students' time is not to be wasted.

I saw that after we made changes, the revised draft was re-inviting the editor, is that right? I am in the same situation now, why do we need to re-invite the editor?

I want to ask, why did it change from "editor assigned" to "editor invited" after the major revision? I had an editor before, but it seems like the deadline for the major revision is May 29th, and I have been making revisions continuously without checking my emails. I missed a reminder email prompting me to submit. Has anyone else experienced this situation? What should I do?

I waited 17 days for the RC, and it was accepted directly after the major revision. It went pretty well.

I have been on RC for a total of 21 days.

Is there any teacher or classmate to discuss the position of this journal in the field? I saw that the journal is still in the third zone of the Chinese Academy of Sciences this year, but the review speed often takes at least a year. I thought the quality would be very high.

The process is indeed very fast, I envy it.

I invested at the end of August last year, submitted for repairs in November, and still haven't received any results yet. Sigh.

Did you also complete the review in the beginning and then keep changing the dates without moving forward?

My paper has been there for 4 months already, but I can't see any progress on Research Square.

Wow, congratulations. I applied for Research Square as you suggested, but on there it only shows "Reviewers agreed", however the completion time on my system has changed a few times. Can you please analyze what this means?

(0) 讚！ | z7529

How many times did you review the completion initially? My schedule has changed a few times, how soon after the initial completion did you provide feedback?

Can any friends help me understand what is going on here, or provide some analysis? I would truly appreciate it.

The speed was very fast, and they accepted both major and minor repairs at once, all completed in less than 5 months.

The submission was made on March 6th with the number reaching 2700. It is estimated that there will be over 16,000 submissions throughout the year. Based on an annual publication of 1500 articles, the acceptance rate is actually less than 10%.

And this status was under review before.

I actually don't know much about this journal. The time in the Status Date section has been changing, but the review status has always been "Reviews Completed."
