It's really not easy, but the speed is okay. Graduation is important.

2022-01-10

The journal's speed is really slow. It has been almost a year and we still haven't received the initial review results. During this period, we have reminded them four or five times. I sincerely do not recommend submitting to this journal. I have never experienced such a slow pace with any other journal. I can't stand the speed of this journal anymore.
