Review resulted in two green and one red signal, editor directly rejected the submission after three months of processing, feeling frustrated

August 1st invited reviewer,
August 21st it's been too long, sent reminder email,
August 24th Editor replied saying under peer review, status also updated to pr (reasonably suspecting they didn't act before the reminder)
September 21st, another month has passed, status stuck at Awaiting GE Decision.
Because one of the reviewers had previously emailed, it was known that the comments had been submitted long ago, it seems the editors haven't acted on it. It's been a full 3 months with no first decision received, missed the deadline for awards, quite embarrassing

How is your submission going?

Submitted on June 23, reviewers were invited on August 1, and still no progress after half a month. This journal is moving at a snail's pace. Authors have to make corrections and formatting before submission, and the editorial and review process is extremely slow, making the time cost far exceed the value of the journal. If the direction is not highly recognized, it is recommended not to submit here, as it is nowhere near the speed and trend of the new national journals and co-published journals.

Additionally, the submission website provided here is incorrect, it should be https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/jstqe-pho

Submitted for 2 months, without any review comments, both websites have been stuck at "select reviewer" and "under review" respectively, and finally got rejected. The reason given was that the content does not meet the journal's requirements.

I am too. I have been submitting for almost 3 months. The status of scholarone manuscripts changed from "Select Reviewers" to "Assign Reviewers". I don't know what the situation is.

2 websites, the official website shows "Under Review" for over a month, and the ScholarOne Manuscripts website shows "Select Reviewers" for over a month. Is it undergoing external review? I don't know what the situation is.

I submitted a topic before September 30, 2022, and received feedback in 20 days. After modifying it for a week, it was accepted on the same day by the editor. This magazine is pretty good, and I will submit to it whenever I have a suitable topic.

Congratulations! I submitted it in mid-August and it is still under external review. It is really super slow, like a snail.

JSTQE is a top journal in optical Q2. Compared with Organic Letters, the innovation requirements must be within the scope of the issue. Compared with Journal of Lightwave Technology, the content integrity must be within the scope of the issue. The number of articles published is too small. It took two months for the first review, and major revision was required (actually a minor revision, 3 reviewers and the comments were positive). One week after the submission of the revised manuscript, it was accepted. The processing speed of the editor was fast. If the innovation is not good enough, it would be rejected at the beginning. It is recommended to submit with substantial content. There is little chance of being acceptance by irregular ways. What’s more, I have heard that there were some people who submitted to this journal. The rejection rate after being sent for review is also very high.

The first review lasted over 20 days and I was given major revisions. It has been 50 days since the second review, and more than 30 days have passed since awaiting GE decision. I hope there will be a good result.

The reviewer was found only 2 months after submission, and the status changed from select reviewers to awaiting reviewer scores; another month later, review comments were received; both reviewers recommended accepting it with minor revisions; two weeks for revisions were given. About 10 days later, the review comments returned; 2 weeks after in the hands of the editor, it was sent to the original reviewers; due to the holiday abroad, the second review comments returned about 2 months later. The two reviewers did not have any comments for further revisions, and recommended it for a direct acceptance. The editorial office accepted it for publication. The manuscript was proofread two weeks later, and officially published in another week. It took more than 6 months from submission to publication. Fortunately, it was finally accepted for publication.

Both reviewers gave good feedback and accepted it immediately after a simple revision.

A good publication in the field of optics, editors and reviewers are very responsible, the speed of review is quite fast, the reviewers are very professional, demanding innovation, and the impact factor is rising.

is a very good publication. The review is very demanding, and the review speed is very fast. Generally, the comments are answered in one month. The impact of these years has been rising. In 2010, 3.458, 20113.78, 4.078 in 2012.

A good journal with a good reputation for Optics express.Perhaps because the Chinese are unfamiliar, the attention is not as good as the OSA.So I think everyone can pay more attention to this journal.In addition, the topic class should be easier to point, I selectd for the topic class.In the first trial of about 20 days, it was changed for one week, and the second trial was 2 weeks, and it was received almost 1.5 months.So happy, basically complete the teacher's request, you can graduate~ I wish the majority of doctors can graduate soon.

The manuscript time is very short. The general submission deadline is one month after the reply, and then 2 weeks of modification time.Mainly the content of the submission and the topic are closely linked, the content of the theory and novelty is strong

review for about two months.The feature journals are relatively easy to play, and once in a lucky one, they are directed at the impact factor.However, most of the papers are inviting papers. The level of self-contribution depends on the level and luck, and the review is very detailed.
