Last year when I submitted my paper, I carefully evaluated the journal's impact factor, and it has always been classified as a Q2 journal by the Chinese Academy of Sciences. This year, the CAS suddenly classified it as a Q3 journal. Can it still be changed back?

Can polarized imaging optics achieve this?

This journal is really fast. Submitted on August 4th and already under review on the 5th! Revised submission on the 19th! Such speed! There are two reviewers, one of whom should be an editor. Because it's still summer vacation and I couldn't add data, I applied for an extension for revisions (from 20 days to 30 days). Submitted revisions on September 14th and accepted on October 1st. If it wasn't for my own reasons and the delay caused by summer vacation, it could have been another ten days faster. In other words, from submission to acceptance, it can be done in just 1 and a half months

It's been almost half a year, and there is still no news. This journal is too slow.

It has been 11 months since the submission and minor revisions. Currently, it is under review again and there are still no results.

It has been over a month since I sent it back for repair since February, and it is still with the editor. I can't understand why it would take so long, it has been a whole 8 months!

The review process of JL journal is too slow. I submitted the article in December 2020 and had to remind them multiple times. In August 2021, I finally received minor revisions and was given a month to make the changes. The entire submission process was slow, slow, slow, and it made me feel exhausted. Fortunately, the journal has good quality and reputation, so receiving minor revisions was somewhat comforting. I hope it gets accepted in the end.

Your speed is almost as fast as mine. I applied at the end of February, and there is still no result now.

I submitted it in early December last year, and received the first review back at the end of April this year. I was given two months to make revisions, which involved major changes. Then, it took one week for re-evaluation, and it was accepted. The review process was quite long; I suppose even the editor felt embarrassed about it. They didn't show it to the reviewers and just approved it directly.
