The impact factor of the transferred journal is 15.9, but it dropped significantly within two years, and I also spent over 30,000.

I was a bit hasty in switching, I switched from AS to Small Str at the time, hoping to directly submit the revised manuscript for review. Seeing the immediate impact factor this year, dropping from 25 to 12 in 25 years, it would have been better to invest in Small Str, I feel like I made a big loss.

The reviewers were very strict, but fortunately it was finally accepted. Although the impact factor is high, the workload feels more suitable for a lower-tier journal like CEJ. Being in the second zone of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and being open access still feels a bit of a loss.

On April 30, 2024, transferred from AEM, on June 20, 2024, wrote a letter to inquire about the review comments, and received the review comments the next day: one rejection, top 50%; one minor revision, top 15%; one major revision, top 30%. The editor decided on a major revision. Overall, the reviewers' comments are easy to address, so the next step is to conduct experiments and reply carefully.

It was the first time submitting to this journal, and it felt like the review process was a bit slow.

Unfortunately, both the Small magazine and all its Small supplements have been classified as second-rate

The overall article innovation of the journal is strong, and the review process is strict. The impact factor has also increased. It would be even better if the journal could further improve its ranking.

The first time I submitted to AM and then transferred to Small Structures. After checking, the immediate impact factor has exceeded both Small and Advanced Science, so I decisively transferred. The handling by the editor-in-chief was very efficient, and the whole process was completed in just over a month. I would like to thank the editor-in-chief and the reviewers and hope for continuous improvement.

Is it necessary to have high publishing costs now? Everything is open source.
