I spent over half a month carefully revising it, only to be rejected. Are you kidding me? Disrespecting others' efforts, even when there are no major issues, it still gets rejected. I'm speechless.

Hello, I would like to ask if there is a limit to the length of the cover letter. The author guidelines require recommending reviewers and reasons, as well as mentioning the novelty of the article, should all of these be included?

Thank you! What is the difference between selecting or not selecting OA? Is it related to the speed of publication?

(0) 讚！ | 一只keyangou

Emails for selection will only be sent after receiving the submission.

I want to ask you, is this journal currently only accepting OA? After submitting my manuscript, I did not see an option to choose OA.

Cutting in line in the academic world is a good thing, at least this reviewer won't block you, you know what I mean, right?

The reviewing speed is not as fast as before, and there have been instances of literature cutting in line.

8.4 Refusal. The advice given is not thorough enough. Personally, I feel that the handling is quite fast. Now I have switched投.

It took nearly five months from submission to acceptance, going through major and minor revisions. The review process was relatively fast, usually taking 3-4 working days. However, half of the time was spent on finding the right editor. It is a well-established journal, but if you are in a hurry to publish, it is important to carefully choose and manage your time.
