Because I noticed that some of the reviews are from several years ago, I wanted to share my personal experience to provide some reference for future authors. Firstly, the editorial team of this journal is very professional and processes submissions quickly. However, I feel that due to reviewers possibly being busy, the editors may prioritize respecting the reviewers, which can result in a slower review process. Currently, submissions are under review regardless of whether they have been sent out, and there is no fee for submission. If a submission has been under review for more than two weeks, it is polite to inquire about its status with the editorial office. Here is a rough timeline of my experience:

Submitted at the end of May, quickly returned for exceeding word count. Resubmitted a few days later and then under review.
Received major revisions on August 8, with three reviewers suggesting one acceptance and two major revisions, allowing for a six-month timeframe, overall satisfactory.
Revised by December 15.
Returned on December 28 for exceeding word count, quickly revised and then under review again (editors may have been on holiday during Christmas, so it's best to follow the guidelines as much as possible).
As of January 15, it appears that opinions from two reviewers have been received.
From January 15 to February 28, the system sent three reminders, all stating to wait for the third reviewer.
Accepted on March 4, recommended for the cover.

Hi, my reviewer suggested rejecting with the hope of resubmission after 6 months for revisions. Does this mean major revisions are required? And how likely is it for the revised paper to be accepted? Thank you for your help

How long does your Under Review last?

It's been two weeks already, is it still an internal audit? The time seems a bit long

(0) 讚！ | 晨风若溪

Yeah, it's unclear whether this magazine's "Under Review" section is for internal review or external review

Should be internal audit
