Verified Reviews
October 26, 2021: Submitted online
December 1, 2021: The paper was with the editor for almost a month. After receiving a reminder email, the editor immediately promised to send it for external review and had a very good attitude.
February 26, 2022: Received first-round review with comments from two reviewers. Major revisions were required with a two-month deadline.
April 5, 2022: Revised the paper with thirty comments from the two reviewers. The response I wrote was longer than the paper itself.
July 5, 2022: Sent a second email to urge the editor, who informed me that one reviewer's comments had returned, but the other had not yet. They advised me not to worry and to contact them anytime if there were any issues.
July 10, 2022: Stayed up all night. At seven in the morning, I opened the submission system and was pleasantly surprised to find that the status had changed to "Accepted" directly.
In summary, the reviewers of this journal were very professional, and their questions helped me further improve my work. The editor was also patient and always responded to my progress inquiry emails within a day.
First submission: 04/Feb/2021
Assigned to editor: 15/Feb/2021

Second feedback received: 24/Sep/2021 (Major Revision)
Second revised manuscript submitted: 30/Oct/2021
Third feedback received: 03/Feb/2022 (Minor Revision)
Third revised manuscript submitted: 02/Mar/2022
Accepted: 04/Mar/2022
There were two reviewers, and the first feedback received included over 30 suggestions from both reviewers combined.
The reviewers were very professional and responsible (based on the feedback, it seems like they were genuinely helping me, a struggling student, to improve the quality of the article).
The entire submission process took 13 months, which was a lengthy duration.
