I'm so slow, it's considered a principled acceptance, but still stuck on the "under technical review" page.

Submitted at the end of July 2023, received revisions in November, returned for revisions for one month, second round of revisions at the end of February, returned within two weeks, waited another two and a half months, back and forth with a few minor issues, finally accepted on May 20, 2024, after a 10-month ordeal. Luckily, the editors were very good and responsible, but the reviewers were slow in responding, taking 2-3 months each time, which was very frustrating. However, the end result was good. It must be said that the editors were very meticulous and responsible, waiting for each reviewer's response, but the process was indeed very slow.

I am also waiting for a reply, but the other person is very slow in responding. I am getting anxious now.

I had already tentatively accepted in May, but a few formatting issues were sent back to me two or three times. The problems were not all addressed at once, and each time I returned it, there was no news for two months. I emailed the editorial department, but even the editor's personal email did not reply. I'm so angry - withdrawing the submission is not an option, and waiting is not an option either. I submitted it on New Year's Day, and it still hasn't been accepted. I have revised it 6 times, and each time it is sent back for editorial assessment, it takes at least a month and a half. I have never seen a journal and editor like this before.

Review speed: 4.0 | Submission hit rate: 50.0
Emphasis on research direction: Biology
Experience sharing: Medical biology direction, lasted for nine months, first review took five months, accepted after two revisions. The reviewers are quite professional and helpful in improving the quality of the article. The review speed is relatively slow, so be cautious if you are in a hurry to graduate.

Any progress? How long does it usually take with the editor?

The impact factor of the journal has declined significantly, and it is feared that there will be changes in the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) classification this year.

Is it normal for my manuscript to come back in 6 days in the same direction? It's been two weeks and the editor still hasn't given me any feedback on the review.

Has anyone ever encountered this situation where the review comments came back in 6 days, but then after half a month the editor still hasn't sent me the review comments??? Could it be that the review result is very poor??

This magazine is like this, it may take a month to receive a response after submitting a simple formatting issue.

Did you hear any news afterwards? It's too exaggerated for the second review to take 8 months

Hired in four months, the process was relatively fast. The AI for biology direction, the review comments were very helpful, improving some details of the article, worth a try!! But the impact factor is a bit low, although it is in the top tier

The decline in journal impact factor has reasons, editor inaction, astonishingly slow review speed, no news for 8 months after the second review, emails are not replied to, do not submit! Do not submit! Do not submit!

She is so unreliable. It's been over 3 months since my second review, and there's been no progress. Even after pushing for a deadline, there's still no progress. It's as if the status column hasn't moved at all

The worst magazine in terms of user experience, with editorial assessment taking too long in the hands of the editors, lasting for a whole month and a half. Who can afford to waste that time? Sending a letter also yielded no response, not replying to emails is too impolite, the editorial department is not efficient enough. I will not consider this magazine in the future, beware of deadlines
