Hello, may I ask the original poster, if it is suggested to submit to this magazine, and I have already completed one round of review for another magazine, will the review process be faster after transferring? How long did it take for you to submit for review after transferring?

@Elf, may I ask a presumptuous question? Isn't the Chinese Academy of Sciences' classification based not only on impact factor? Doesn't it consider the quality of the articles as well? If it only considers impact factor, then what is the point of the CAS classification? Who is the one that doesn't understand? If you cannot grasp the meaning of my words, please refrain from commenting. It's frustrating.

@Elf, if I may ask rudely, isn't the classification of the Chinese Academy of Sciences based not only on the impact factor? Isn't the level of the articles taken into account as well? If the classification is solely based on the impact factor, then what is the purpose of the CAS classification? Who exactly doesn't understand?

小精灵 2023-07-27

Don't comment blindly if you don't understand. The impact factor is updated at the end of June every year, while the Chinese Academy of Sciences' division is usually updated at the end of December (for the 2022 edition, it was updated in January this year), so there is a time difference.

I turned to this magazine after JVI rejected my submission, but ironically, JVI ended up being in the second category while this magazine got placed in the first category. It's absolutely hilarious.

What is the significance of the CAS (Chinese Academy of Sciences) journal ranking? Isn't it just based on IF (Impact Factor)? Hasn't it been proven wrong this year?

When did this magazine ever publish articles of the level of a Q1 journal in microbiology?

小丑① 2023-07-18

Only 3.7 marks this year, I'm in the second division!!!

小丑① 2023-07-11

The result is unknown after being invested.

Editor 2023-07-07

The current impact factor is 3.7. Can I still submit now? Is it in accordance with Zone 1 of the Chinese Academy of Sciences?

水刊杀手 2023-06-28

Trash magazine, waited for two months and they said they couldn't find an editor, then waited another month and they said it was rejected. No wonder it dropped to 3.7.

柯岩柯岩 2023-06-28

When did you win, you would be so broke based on the current impact factor.

GJ1980 2023-06-28

I accepted the revisions without asking much when the manuscript was submitted. Now I deeply regret it.

GJ1980 2023-06-28

Hey, how did we only get a 3.7 in District 1?

xxxxlml 2023-06-28

The latest impact factor has been released, 3.7!! Are you still brave enough to invest?!!!!

592993578 2023-06-17

No, don't invest anymore. This year is probably a zone 3, and it's still so expensive. It's better to go for MDPI.

90 days may be due to differences in opinion among the three reviewers, and the editor is looking for a fourth reviewer to assess the paper. It could also be because editors with different research areas have varying processing speeds. You can check if the articles assigned to your editor and your field of expertise are the same.

Why has my under peer review status been for 45 days already, and it has been a total of 90 days for me? I have sent three reminders but there has been no reply. What could be the reason?

勇敢面对8048 2023-06-02

May I ask why my paper has been under peer review for 45 days already, making a total of 90 days, and despite three reminders, there has been no response? What could be the reason for this?

ABC。 2023-05-28

I'm the same, has your condition changed?

ABC。 2023-05-21

May I ask about the status of your evaluation? Should it change back to "under peer review" before returning comments, or should the comments be returned directly?

Has the status "under evaluation" been sent for review? How long does this status last? Thank you, thank you.

李慕 2023-05-11

Just want to ask everyone, after submission, it is "under peer review - under evaluation - under peer review - under evaluation" status. Is it in the reviewing process? How long will this status last? Thank you all and wish everyone to be accepted!

jingzhe789 2023-05-10

What the hell is going on when suddenly unable to log into the account.

ABC。 2023-05-05

Can you upload your status changes? Mine went from evaluation to peer review, then a month later back to peer review-evaluation. I don't know what's going on.

柯岩柯岩 2023-05-04

The ASM reviewers are very professional, and the questions they ask are very insightful. The paper was accepted after two minor revisions, and each round of revisions took about a month to receive the results. I hope the journal continues to improve! The process is a bit long, usually taking 4-5 months.

柯岩柯岩 2023-05-04

The ASM reviewers are all very professional, asking questions that hit the nail on the head. The paper was accepted after two minor revisions, and the results were returned within a month after each round of revisions. I hope the journal continues to improve!

秃头咸鱼 2023-04-24

May I ask what is the status of my "under evaluation-under peer review-under evaluation"?

天天开心 2023-04-23

Submitted for six months, three rounds of review, finally accepted. The reviewer is not Chinese and asked very professional and insightful questions. They raised around forty to fifty questions, which required a considerable amount of experiment supplementation.

天天开心 2023-04-23

I haven't decided whether or not to submit you for review.
