5.20 Submit; 5.22 With editor; 5.24 Under review; 6.5 Under review; 7.1 Under review; 7.7 Under review; 7.26 Under Editor Evaluation; 7.27 Minor Revision; 8.3 Revision Submitted to Journal; 8.4 With editor; 8.4 Accept; 8.6 Online. I saw everyone’s comments saying that it was slow and I was very worried, but overall it felt okay. Two reviewers, the first one was very positive and only suggested the language to be modified; the second one raised 6 comments. A minor revision was were finally required by the editor. The editor was Professor Xiao from Zhejiang University. The manuscript was processed very fast. The manuscript was accepted within 2 days after the revised manuscript was submitted, which was great. But it took a long period for the Under review in the early stage of review, and the review comments returned after two months. This was my first SCI paper in a top journal, and I can finally graduate. I wish you all the best in scientific research!

The 380th floor continued. It was really too slow. If you have time requirements, please submit your manuscripts carefully. 8.14 submitted to journal; 8.24 with editor; 9.5 under review; 9.29 under review; 10.21 under review; 11.5 under review; 11.17 under review; 12.04 under review; 12.24 under review; 2020.1.06 under revision; 20201.17 major revision. All the comments were to change English in the recommendation of major revision. Three reviewers recommended acceptance after minor revisions. 2.14 with editor; 2.28 major revision. The first reviewer still thought English was poor and required modifying the language. My English is not good, but it would not be like this. It is not so good. I found an editing agency the journal approved to polish it and issue a polishing certificate. Then I submitted it. (The polishing agency basically did not change a few places, purely for earning money). 3.14 with editor; 3.24 minor revision; 3.29 finally accepted.

The editor is slow. A few months for the review period.

My manuscript has been under review for a month now. One of the reviewers submitted their comments the day after it went into "under review," but the other two reviewers have not yet submitted their comments. I feel like the first reviewer submitted their comments too quickly and my paper might be rejected. It has been two months since I submitted the manuscript and I still haven't received any decision. I'm really worried!

However, the journal's "duplicate submission check" has indicated a high level of duplication when comparing this submission with a recently accepted paper. It is not recommended to submit a similar paper to the same journal within a short time frame. Therefore, we must reject your manuscript. Oh well, it's not advisable to keep submitting to JAC.

What about the review period? I currently have four manuscripts under review, but none of them have been completed. The longest one has been under review for almost half a month.

After the first reviewer gave the approval upon return, three more reviewers were invited. Only one agreed to review, and their feedback has already been received. The editor has requested minor revisions.

It has been seven days and no one has accepted the editorial invitation for review. Is this normal? I am feeling a bit anxious.

It has been seven days since UR submitted. Is this normal? The editor only invited six people to review, but no one has accepted the manuscript.
