The number of the articles accepted is getting bigger and bigger, and the self-citation rate has risen to 31%. There is a risk of being kicked next year. Although I have one article accepted by this journal, I feel it is not worth it, I regret it!

Although the submission was rejected, I have to say the speed was fast; the result was received in a week.

Brother, the same. One major revision, 33 comments from one reviewer, and other reviewers also copying this person's comments, now uploaded, waiting for the second review. There weren't so many issues with previous submissions to Poultry Science... I feel like it's intentional

Submission to acceptance took 1 and a half months, with major revisions in the first round and minor revisions in the second round. There were a total of 4 reviewers, and the revisions were overwhelming. After the second round of revisions, an external academic editor was invited due to issues with the original protein data, and acceptance was granted after 2 rounds of battling with them. This year MDPI is under scrutiny, hoping to maintain our position in the rankings of Clarivate and the Chinese Academy of Sciences

Submitted on May 8th, 2023, accepted on June 18th. Fast turnaround, suitable for graduation. Reviewers are generally not difficult. It can be considered as an entry-level journal in the second tier. Overall, it is highly recommended.

It took over a month from submission to acceptance. After a month of external review, the result came out: three experts provided major revisions with over 30 suggestions, including the structure of the manuscript, analysis of experiments, and language details.

One major revision in the first review, followed by minor revisions and a request for proofreading in the second review. After proofreading as specified by MDPI, it was returned. On the third day, the academic editor raised a new issue and then rejected it. If there were any issues, why were they not raised earlier? They rejected it after the proofreading was done.

Rejected on December 28th
There were four reviewers, one suggested minor revisions, one rejected the submission for not meeting the journal's requirements, one rejected it for lacking significance, and the last reviewer provided only grammar-related edits.

The review speed is fast, both the acceptance and rejection are quick. The time from submission to publication for accepted papers is generally within 2 months, with the fastest being a little over a month. My colleagues and I have submitted a total of 8 papers, with 4 being rejected and 4 being accepted. It is a good choice for those who are in a hurry to graduate or seeking a promotion. The downside is that some people have biased opinions about MDPI journals. There are usually 3 reviewers, some of whom are very professional, while others may not provide very professional suggestions. Typically, there are 3 rounds of revisions, and if the third revision still doesn't satisfy the reviewers, the paper is usually rejected.

The speed is faster than the previous series, but the reputation is not as good! There is a lot of water in prestigious schools in the industry, and personal opinions are for reference only.

It is like this, the initial review values the organization. Generally, if an organization can publish articles on it, it means the quality is really good!

The review speed is very fast, and I know someone who had their submission accepted within a month. However, the reputation and quality of the magazine are average. I had previously been rejected after submitting, but I was accepted when I submitted to a top journal in the industry.

In 2020, I published an article, and in 2021, I submitted another one. I need a complete image with protein and marker. Now, it has been promoted to the second district and has become more strict.

The speed of the review is okay, receiving review comments in about a month: major revision (4 reviewers, 1 rejection + 1 major revision + 1 minor revision + 1 direct acceptance), returned after 10 days; minor revision after 7 days (2 minor revisions), returned after 3 days; pending editor decision after 7 days, continuing for over a month; finally, the editor directly rejected it, the reason being that during the pending editor decision stage after the second round of minor revision, there was a strong insistence on rejection (mentioning one issue); appealed and sent for review again, returned to the hands of the rejecting reviewer after 1 and a half months, and the editor rejected it again. I really don't understand what has been going on for the past six months. It's unbelievable that they can insist on rejection based on just one person's opinion, especially after making several revisions over the course of six months!
