Submitted on November 12th, 25, the manuscript was with the editor the same day, and after 2-3 days it was in peer review status. On December 29th, received the reviewer comments, the first reviewer provided minor revisions, and the second reviewer provided major revisions (the first reviewer asked for more details, while the second reviewer's comments seemed like they didn't read the article at all).

Returned on January 5th, 26, also with the editor the same day. Received the second round of reviewer comments on February 10th, the first reviewer agreed to accept the manuscript, while the second reviewer still provided major revisions, and the editor suggested minor revisions (the comments from the second reviewer were still odd, and they listed several articles that needed to be cited).

Accepted on February 19th, it seems that the manuscript was not sent back to the reviewers during the process. Overall, the editor was very supportive, and it was left to luck with the reviewers. The journal's reputation is still good, and hopefully, it can return to the second-tier category.

It has been 10 days and it hasn't been submitted for review yet. Why is it taking so long?

Certainly

I have submitted for over a month now, and the submission system has shown that two reviewers have already completed their reviews. However, the status of the paper has been constantly switching between "With editor" and "In peer review," with no feedback from the reviewers. I do not know the reason for this, and I hope for some good luck!

I used to submit my glowing work without review, but now I don't do it anymore. Today, when I searched for literature, I came across this journal and checked it out. It's so pathetic - the impact factor is just over 5, and it's in the third tier of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. There's no way out. Why did it end up like this? It used to feel like being on top of the world.

The editor is associate editor Martyn McLachlan. By the time of acceptance, he seemed to have become the editor-in-chief on the official website, showing high efficiency.
On a side note, I previously submitted to a journal of similar caliber, which took four months for two major revisions and involved a total of six reviewers. The editor still decided to reject the manuscript in the end.
Once again, expressing dissatisfaction with the previous journal.

Why did you come online so quickly? I have been waiting for almost a month and you still haven't come online.

The initial review process took a while, with two reviewers providing many suggestions. The paper was accepted for publication one month after submission.

Is JMCC going to drop JCR Q2 next year according to this trend?

Hello, I would like to ask, what does "In peer review" mean? Can I see how many reviewers there are on the submission interface?

Whether or not to reject it depends on the content of the article. It may require major revisions. If it takes longer, feedback will be given in two months. If it is faster, feedback will be given in one month.

Submitted major revisions within one month,
received major revisions three weeks later,
accepted in about one week,
online in about one more week,
the important thing is that the responses are really fast!
In order to graduate smoothly, I will just accept it. I am truly grateful to him.

Excuse me, everyone, what is the rejection rate of this journal? I'm a bit nervous, it's my first time submitting to SCI.
