Among NSR, Sci. Bull. and Research, I personally feel most optimistic about NSR. It is too one-sided to evaluate journals through the impact factor. The impact factors of some journals that receive papers of popular directions such as energy and batteries are relatively easy to rise rapidly. For example, Sci. Bull. At present, most of the articles received are articles on batteries and popular materials. For comprehensive journals, I personally feel that even if the impact factor of this journal is very high, it may not be widely recognized. The work described in the article is solid or not should be judged by the peer readers. Some journals have low impact factors was due to the direction is not popular, but the work done by them is quite systematic and technical.

Four professional reviewers help perfect the article. It had been submitted twice in the group. It was not sent out for review the first time, and it was sent out for review this time, which was fortunate. This article was submitted to the Nature Chemistry and Chemistry before and not all the three reviewers agreed to let it be revised. All the four reviewers of National Science Review recommended revisions this time. Seriously revised it for a month. Finally accepted.

There must be a relationship to submit to this journal. It's no use submitting to it if you don’t have a relationship. It won’t be accepted even if the review comments are good. Domestic journals pay more attention to invisible things than foreign ones. A lesson from the past, please pay attention to it if you intend to submit to this journal. It makes people believe that there still be a long way for domestic journals.

A leading journal among journals published in China. Based on my several years of research in the field and a series of papers I published, I wrote up some personal opinions and thoughts about this field and submitted to the Perspective section of NSR. After submission, it was sent to peer review very quickly. The review took two months. All three reviewers gave favorable evaluations. The editor requested minor revision. The paper was accepted two months after I submitted the revision.

After being rejected multiple times by journals such as Nature and Science, I was advised by a friend to submit to NSR (a journal I was not familiar with and was not invited to submit to). It is said that the journal has very strict academic standards and a low acceptance rate (the journal is highly positioned and has stringent academic standards - it is said that even some national talents who are acquainted with the journal's editors/deputy editors and are familiar with them on a regular basis have had their submissions rejected without being reviewed, even after several submissions). After submission, there were also many rejections (it is said that some submissions were rejected after review by three reviewers: two with positive comments and one with negative comments). 

The first round of review took approximately 2-3 months, and the questions and suggestions from the three reviewers were all very detailed, professional, and challenging. During the major revision, a significant amount of additional experiments and experimental evidence were conducted in response to the reviewers' doubts and questions, resulting in a response of nearly 50 pages and some experimental demonstration videos. 

After acceptance, the journal requested revisions to the figures four times (vector graphics, with modifications to size, format, font, font size, style, layout, etc.), with strict requirements. It is said that during the publication process, the publishing editor will review the manuscript three times, ensuring rigorous quality control. 

In terms of academic standards, the journal seems to be quite rigorous and fair.

Is there any difference in the positioning and article orientation between National Science Review and Science Bulletin? Which one is better now?

Are foreign journals devoid of human sentiments? Don't criticize blindly; the articles are actually quite good. Give national journals some time

Researchers should have a sense of awe, submitting to Nature is great, no need to insist on NSR [dog head

(1) Thank | Barryreno

I submitted my paper to Nature for review first and was about to receive it for minor revisions. Suddenly, I thought that in order to support the development of domestic journals, especially with the support of my fellow countrymen, NSR will definitely surpass Nature and beat Science in the future. Therefore, I immediately rejected Nature's request for publication of my article and switched to submitting to NSR

If your manuscript is rejected after being submitted to a legitimate journal, and you decide to submit it directly to this NSR, you are just a joke, haha

Submitted on 18th October 2023. It has been a week and there is no news. The future prospects for the journal are bright, but the processing speed is indeed a bit slow. It seems that the phenomenon of manuscript waiting is quite serious recently

After being rejected by Nature and Science, the article was submitted to NSR. The research was conducted abroad, and there are no influential domestic experts in the author list. The editor was very enthusiastic and diligent, and the reviewer's comments were very fair and helpful, greatly assisting the work. I hope NSR continues to improve and succeed!

One week after submission, it was under review, and after more than 20 days, it changed to "Awaiting Decision". It has been "Awaiting Decision" for a week now, and I am anxiously waiting. Is this when the Decision Letter is being written?

Another strange thing is that my article is at the intersection of medicine and information, but the assigned editor is not from biology or information science, but from chemistry. I'm not sure if it's because they have too many manuscripts recently.
