2020.01.05 Submission; one month later, major revision was required; 2020.03.12 revision submitted; 2020.04.08 accepted. It is the current top journal in the field of instrumentation, especially in the field of MEMS. The next class of journals only has an impact factor of two or three. The speed of the review depends on the direction. Our direction is relatively popular, and the review is relatively fast.

First review required a major revision. One rejection, one minor revision. It took half a month to revise and get accepted, but the review is a bit slow.

What happened later, my friend? How long before you gave your opinion?

It has been 11 days since the manuscript was under consideration. How should I know if the editor will reject it directly or send it for review? How long does it usually take for a direct rejection? I saw on the journal's website that the median days from submission to first editorial decision is 7. It has been 18 days since I submitted, so if it is rejected, will it not enter this status? It has been 18 days now, and I don't want to wait too long. I check the status twice a day. o(╥﹏╥)o

Can you please tell me how to check if my submission has been reviewed or not? It has been showing "Manuscript Under Consideration" since I submitted it. If it is rejected, how long does it usually take for a rejection?
