The review process is indeed very slow, not as fast as the comments suggest. Starting from 2 weeks with the editor, the probability is very high. Those in a hurry to graduate should be cautious when submitting their work.

I have never encountered a journal that is so incredibly slow. For my sixth article during my doctoral studies, I chose this journal. From submission on June 30th to receiving a perfunctory template rejection on July 21st, it was always in a "with editor" status. Our group has already blacklisted this journal.

I haven't started yet, I'll also give it a push.

I suddenly got audited, not sure if it's because I pushed the English customer service in the morning!!

The word count suddenly disappeared, I contacted the English customer service in the morning, not sure if that's the reason!!!

That should not be the case. I have to submit for review in the middle of the month, and the revision is at the beginning of the month. This might be random. He wanted to log in and take a look, but this time it's outrageous. I have been in the hands of the editor for 20 days, it's really incredible.

Yes, it's just once a month. I've repaired it two or three times already. From WE to UR to RRC and back to WE, UR, and RRC again, all of them are handled at the end of the month.

Once a month??? That's so exaggerated!!

This editor processes manuscripts once a month. The next time will be at the end of the month.

This is too slow. I haven't heard anything from my editor yet. I wonder what they are up to.

I don't have it either, haha. How long does it take for your first submission to be reviewed?

Has anyone selected YI ZUO as the reviewer, and has anyone submitted for review from 6.29 until now?

I have been back for over half a month for rework, but I haven't submitted it for review yet.

Mine is also very slow. I submitted it at 6:30, and it is still "With Editor" now. It's been half a month... so frustrating.

Submission on the 3rd, with editor on the 7th, there haven't been any changes yet. It's still the same editor. How is this editor? Is he/she very slow?

The submission was made on May 25th and was accepted on July 11th, the processing speed was quite fast.

Hello, when is your submission deadline? I submitted mine on 6.27 and haven't heard back yet.

6.29 The returned for rework, directly We
7.2 The time changed a bit, still We
Until now it's still We, the selected editor is YI ZUO, when can it be submitted for review? Shouldn't the returned for rework be submitted for review quickly?

The submission period is two months.

There were two rounds of revisions in between, I am very grateful to the editor and the two reviewers for their efficient and professional work.

This is my graduation thesis. I had previously submitted it to other journals, but decided to submit it to this one directly. I would like to thank the editors and reviewers for recognizing my work and pointing out its deficiencies. I am also grateful to my supervisor for guiding and assisting me throughout the submission process. Here is a timeline of the submission process:

4.6: Submitted
4.15: Under review (Two reviewers were found quickly, with the first one raising few but important questions. The second reviewer took a month to respond, so the editor found a third reviewer who was also quick but more detail-oriented.)
5.18: Review complete
5.19: Revision (20 days given for revisions)
5.28: Revised (The manuscript stayed with the editor for about a week before being sent for review)
6.6: Accepted (Both reviewers responded quickly with their second review)
6.7: Online

It took exactly 2 months, which was relatively fast. The reviewers raised very professional and detailed points that are often overlooked during experimentation and writing.
