Four months have passed, and the day before Christmas Eve, my submission was rejected in the first round of review, citing that there were too many pending manuscripts and others more suitable than me. They said I was too dark and humorous

The submission to the journal was reviewed for a month, then by the editors for another half month. The external review process took nearly four months, only to receive a rejection in the end. The reviewer's comments spanned three pages, with a high level of scrutiny on the research details and references

Contacted the journal twice, was told the editor is reviewing it, but the status still hasn't changed. It's been over two months

Replied, already forwarded to the editor

Can I ask if the administrator has replied, saying that it has been forwarded to the editor?

Still in this state, I emailed the editor asking if everything was normal

Submitted on August 29th, still waiting to hear back from the journal administrator. I wonder how much longer it will take

It's really slow because it has been 35 days with the Journal Administrator, just like the one above. I don't know how much longer I have to wait, so I'll leave a comment

"After 35 days of submission, it was in the 'With Journal Administrator' status, which was strange. Then, it was in the 'With Editor' status for 7 days, followed by 'Out for Review' for 15 days. After that, it was in the 'Decision Pending' status for 3 days. Ultimately, it was rejected. The three reviewers provided diverse opinions, ranging from experimental design to data analysis and writing. Although there were some areas of disagreement, most of the opinions pointed out weaknesses that I also believed were forced."

Does the system display the correct submission progress, may I ask? I have been with the journal administrator for over a month, and when I emailed them, they said there was no problem. Just today, it has been a month and a half since it was transferred to the editor.

May I ask how long have you been conducting the second review and external audit?

Upgrade version of the Chinese Academy of Sciences Zone 2 journal
The first review takes 2 months, the second review takes 1 month, and the results are notified within 3 days after receiving the second review comments.
The modification process is not easy, but the editorial work is very fast.

The only three-star journal of AJG in man-machine engineering, an authoritative journal in the field, the review speed was very fast. If it is not suitable, the results will be released in about 10 days (I have submitted an article that was directly rejected by the editor around 10 days later, and then I know that several submissions were also rejected within 10 days). The following submission experience is for your reference: 1. The editor required to polish language 1 week after submission. 2. The manuscript was resubmitted half a month later, and it was under review a week later. 3. Major revision was required 3 months later (2 reviewers, more than 30 comments), and I was given half a year for revision. 4. The revised manuscript was returned one and a half months later. 5. Minor revision was required 40 days later. 6. The revised manuscript was returned one week later and accepted 3 days later.
