The review paper takes about 4 months from submission to acceptance. There are many comments from reviewers, but they are not difficult. This journal will have a desk rejection before peer review. So seeing a desk rejection does not necessarily mean the paper will be rejected. Review papers can be submitted without invitation.

May I ask what the final result was for you? I also only had one reviewer come back and they rejected it directly. How long do you think the rejection will last?

Hello, may I ask why this journal was dipped before the initial review, but after almost a month it changed to "Under Review"? What is the situation?

Extremely deceptive journal, submitted for almost 2 years, went through 2 rounds of revisions, and ultimately got rejected

Did you contact the journal's editorial department or did you contact Elsevier customer service to urge for submission?

Urging is useless. I have urged twice and it was all official customer service replies. It's completely useless!!!

Hello, have you contacted the editor after submitting? It's been almost a month and a half, I'm not sure if I should follow up

The manuscript was submitted in June 2022. It took two months for the editors to start looking for reviewers. Four reviewers were invited for the first round, which took 8 months. One recommended direct acceptance, two minor revisions, and one major revision. After the revisions were submitted, a long waiting period began. Only one reviewer from the first round provided feedback, so three more reviewers were added by the editor. After 7 months of lengthy review process, feedback was received. Three recommendations were for direct acceptance, while one of the additional reviewers had many suggestions, leading to another major revision. The revised manuscript was accepted approximately one month later. The entire process lasted 18 months, which was too long. There were many times in between when I wanted to give up. Students in a rush to publish should carefully consider submitting to this journal

Can you please provide me with more information about the project?

Are there any fellow Taoists who do not rush for submission after submitting to a journal? This is too slow, and I'm thinking about sending a message to the editor
