I would like to ask, is it normal for a submission to be in "Under Review" status for CM? Has it been submitted for review or not yet?

It makes sense, but in recent years, the templates of Angew AM PNAS and several other publications have been increasingly imitated, causing a widening gap.

Excuse me, which editor is it?

Excuse me, which editor are you referring to?

The first few questions are not a big deal. Even the few journals under Cell are rarely classified into the third tier. The third tier is basically small NC SA JACS Angew AM PNAS PRL. The fifth tier is mostly industry journals, and the ones you mentioned are not well recognized. The more comprehensive journals usually only reach the fourth tier at most. The classification of the fifth tier depends on the department and field you are in, for example, polymers would look at Macromolecules, biomaterials at Biomaterials JCR, analytical chemistry at AC, and so on.

You are right, the quality of papers on CM is absolutely classic. Some journals can be ignored in terms of their impact factor, such as 1/2/3/4. The Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) ranking in part 5 and the remaining journals do have some reference value. There are not many domestic journals that match both quality and impact factor.

The process is a bit long. Submission on 6.2, major revision on 7.19, minor revision on 8.18, acceptance on 9.20, proofreading on 10.7. The publication is estimated to be on 10.10, which is over four months. The French editors are rather slow.

If this journal continues to decline like this, it will probably soon become a 5-point journal, and quickly become a third-tier journal. The requirements are high, but it is only a second-tier journal, not even as good as a first-tier journal.

Submission is due in two weeks, but it seems like it's my editor who's dragging behind

Have you submitted the paper for review after more than 10 days of preparation?

The professional journal has a somewhat sluggish impact factor, but it is still quite challenging and not very fast-paced

Everything else is fine, but let's not include membrane science with a self-citation rate of 20

I want to ask, if the editor asks for the revised submission to be sent back, do I need to go through the review process again? How long will it take?

No wonder the impact factor is declining, the editor is being unresponsive, and it has been more than 10 days without any review

Is the status of the external audit under review?

Wasn't this journal always around an impact factor of 10? Why did it drop so much this year? Although it is considered a well-established and influential journal, it should still manage its impact factor a bit. A factor above 10 is also a graduation requirement for many universities, so an impact factor of 8.6 is unacceptable.

Ah, only the big shots can publish in prestigious journals. It's too difficult for a small research group like ours to submit an article to such a top-tier journal.
