If you submit it and it hasn't been rejected for a month, it means it has been sent for external review.

May I ask how many months you had to wait for peer review to begin in the first place? How come I was peer reviewed the next day?

Now, after submitting, I also look at peer review the next day.

I am also in the process of peer review, I don't know if it has been submitted for review or is still in the hands of the editor.

What's the situation now?

The second day after submission shows "peer review," then after a few days it changes to "awaiting admit processing," and after a few more days it changes back to "peer review." What does this mean?

A major revision followed by two months of review, then directly accepted for publication.

A major overhaul, with a two-month review process, resulted in direct acceptance.

How long does the editorial review process typically take?

Hello, may I ask if the external audit is still in process or if it is under peer review status, or is it still under review? Last time, the peer review was rejected after more than ten days.

I submitted the paper in November of the year before last, and it was sent back for revisions in February last year. I was hired in March. I never received any proofreading, and I sent four or five emails urging the editor to no avail. Suddenly in February of this year, they said their process was wrong, and they felt the topic was not suitable, so they decided not to publish it. It's really frustrating! This journal has exhausted me for a year, and now I have to resubmit. This journal is very unprofessional, so everyone should be cautious when submitting their work.

This journal is indeed slow in processing, and the submission process is also quite bumpy, with each review cycle taking 2-3 months.

2025-3-1 Submission
2025-6-1 Major revision - reviewed by two reviewers, with around 10 comments in total
2025-6-24 Major revision returned
2025-9-18 Minor revision - one accepted, one basically repeated the comments from the first review
2025-9-20 Minor revision returned
2025-11-24 Major revision - added a new reviewer, who provided 7 comments, one accepted, one still repeating comments from the previous two reviews
2025-11-26 Major revision returned
2026-1-14 Accepted - two accepted, one still repeating comments.

External audits usually take 2-3 months.

The external audit will probably take a few months.

May I ask if it has been submitted all along? Has it been reviewed?

Isn't it under major repair?

It has been almost a month since it was submitted, but it has not been reviewed yet.

Is there no review process? How come submission means major revision?

(0) 讚！ | wyl1115731297

Is there no review process? Why is it considered a major revision once submitted?
