I’m here to scold some people, who showed off in fellow apprentices with those articled published in this kind of journals, which caused troubles for others. My senior fellow published the first paper in a well-known but unqualified open access Q2 journal, and the second in PLoS One. His family are rich, so he paid for the publication himself. The supervisor is old and doesn't understand much about journals. The senior fellow told the supervisor that the articles were published in Q1 and Q2 journals. Thus, the rest of us were panicked and were urged to submit to SCI journals every day. The supervisor even feels that it is very easy to publish in SCI journals, and the papers could be accepted within one or two months. I don’t mind it if you publish in such journals, but can you keep silent after the publishing? Don't you know what level are you at?

It is my first SCI paper during the master study. This journal was still very fast, and I am happy to continue working hard. I have not figured out the reason for the speed of this review. In short, the review speed is much faster than others. Manuscript submitted to journal 2.21; with editor 2.28; under review 2.29; Decision in Process 3.16; revise-minor reversion 3.17; manuscript submitted to journal 3.19; with editor 3.20; Decision in Process 3.20; Submissions in Production 3.24. The displayed results of the manuscript: Received: February 21, 2020; Accepted: March 20, 2020; Published: April 15, 2020. I just want to ask when the journal charge me publication fee, and why there is no news after that.

The more I look at the 157th floor, the more I want to laugh. With all due respect, the level of the experts’ students differs a lot. The academician also cannot guarantee that all his articles were published on the Q1 journals. It is inevitable that a few poor students who have articles published on PLOS ONE, which was reasonable. It is funny that you judged the level of this journal just based on this, which makes laugh. Even Yigong Shi can't guarantee that every article will be published in NSC, and it is normal for an article published in a valueless journal. And he will not whitewash it. Your speech like this shows that your scientific research level is really low. I have never seen an expert in research whitewash his article in Q3 or Q4 crazily, and you are doing something like this.

This journal is quickly growing into a popular choice from scientists in many fields. Warning: the reviewers can be very tough re: the quality of the English writing; if you are an international researcher you better make use of an editing service or you may very quickly receive a desk rejection. The reviewers are very strict and thorough.

It has been three months since submission, and it is still under review. Is there still hope? I sent an email one month ago and only one reviewer has reviewed the manuscript.

Has the assignment been edited later? How long was it assigned? It's been a long time since I've been assigned an editor as well.

Has it been over a week since the editor was invited, because they couldn't find one? Or are they planning to reject the submission?

It's already 4.15 now, almost a month has passed, but there is no news at all. No payment invoice has been provided, nor have the following steps been given. Everything seems to be stuck.

Hello, can you see the payment email in the submission system after it is officially received?

(1) Thank | AmosFranklin

Since March 18th, I have encountered the second trial, and have sent seven or eight letters to the journal, but it has been of no use. I don't know what to do, feeling as if I am dead.

Could you guys please tell me when I will receive the acceptance notification? My article already has a DOI number, and I have made the final formatting changes as requested by the editor. It has been over a week now, and the status should be in the process of being produced.

How many pieces of advice have you been given in total?

(0) Thank | 亮梅

After four months of review, it was finally rejected. I feel numb. The main reason is that there were too many requirements, and it took me a month to gather all the necessary materials.
