It has been close to a month since submission, and currently it is still in the awaiting reviewer selection stage. How long will this status last, and will calling to follow up have any effect?

Excuse me, how long has this "awaiting reviewer selection" status been ongoing? When would be an appropriate time to make a phone call to follow up?

Is this journal going to be promoted or demoted this year?

The status is still 3.18, how long is this likely to last, and when would be a good time to follow up?

Hahaha, after many years, I feel relieved to see that there are still many people cursing me. The **Yuan I encountered was the same. After the external review, everything that needed to be submitted was submitted. They would come back saying something was missing, or that a font in a form needed to be changed, or that an image needed to be revised. In the end, they rejected it due to language issues. Even though the copyright agreement was submitted early, they still used it as a reason to reject it. Every time there was a problem, they would send it back, and then after reworking it, they would find another issue to send it back again a month later. The external review took over a year, **. However, seeing what others were saying in the comments section about calling and complaining to them, I knew that it had become a matter of internal connections at Central South University. Others should be cautious when submitting.

I submitted it at the end of December 25 years ago, and now it has been over two months, and it has not been sent for review yet... I used to think this journal was relatively good, but now it has dropped to the 2nd tier and is still not in the top. This must be largely related to the speed of review...

My status has changed to Awaiting Reviewer Assignment.

I really can't believe this journal, other journals from the same field that were submitted two months after mine have already been accepted.

Awaiting reviewer assignment means the submission has not been assigned to a reviewer yet.

It's so scary, I'll wait another week. If not, I'll call Teacher Yuan to ask.

I would like to ask about the submission made on July 3rd, 2025. Today is October 21st, 2025 and the status is "awaiting reviewer assignment". How much longer will it take to receive a decision?

Brother, how are you doing? I have been waiting for over 70 days for my final submission to be approved.

The first review took about four months for major revisions, then another month for minor revisions. After the revisions were submitted, the manuscript was returned due to formatting, image, and language issues. After making the necessary changes, it was resubmitted, but was returned again after over twenty days due to image and language issues. It has been over forty days and the manuscript still hasn't been processed. This domestic journal is truly speechless.

Hello, do you have a submission template for the English version of the Journal of Nonferrous Metals that you could share with me?

It has dropped to Zone 2 already, and it's still not in the TOP.
