The review speed of this journal was very, very slow! The first review lasted for 4 months, and it lasted for another 4 months after the revision returned. During the period of email contact, they put off with various reasons.

Let’s talk about my personal experience, there is a special place on the submission homepage of this journal. It is one of the journals that offers expedited review. According to the exchange rate at the time of my submission, it is about 40,000 RMB. Let me share my experience and lessons. The publication fee must be paid. It is reminded on the front page of this journal, the result of review will be given in a month if the expedited fee is paid, whether it was accepted or revision required. I didn’t pay the fee, as a result, for the first review and the review after revision, the result of each review was given in 4 months. And it also took 4 months for the review of minor revision, which was very slow. Therefore, if you submit to this journal, it is recommended that you have to pay this fee, otherwise it will be delayed for a long time, which will affect graduation.

Urgency does not necessarily mean acceptance. The official website has clear instructions. This journal has been slow recently, and my latest manuscript has been submitted for 3 months without any feedback

Hello, what kind of article do you need? I'm in a hurry to graduate, and I'm not sure if paying an expedited fee will increase the acceptance rate

Do you need to provide original data if you don't pay for submission? Will it take a long time to be processed?

It's free of charge, but if you want to publish quickly and need color image printing, you will need to pay a fee. I suggest the standard publication without any payment for color images

Review Speed: 24.0 Experience Sharing: Speaking from personal experience, the review process for this journal is very, very slow. Whether it's the initial review or the revision and re-review, it typically takes a full 4 months before a decision is made. That means it has taken a total of 8 months from the first submission to receive feedback. If you are considering submitting to this journal, it is best to proceed with caution

Review speed: 8.0 experience sharing: Share your personal experience. The unique feature of this journal's submission page is that it is one of the few journals that offer expedited reviews. Based on the exchange rate at the time of my submission, it was approximately 40,000 RMB. I would like to share my lesson learned - the expedited fee must be paid. The journal's homepage states that if the expedited fee is paid, the review results will be provided within one month, regardless of rejection or revision. I did not pay this fee, and as a result, the initial review and revisions took a full 4 months for each process before receiving the results. Even the review for minor revisions took a full 4 months, which was very slow. Therefore, if submitting to this journal, it is recommended to pay the expedited fee, otherwise, the review process may be significantly delayed, affecting graduation
