I have submitted multiple times, and this time the editor and reviewer were the fastest in their processing. However, the reviewer's comments made me very angry. The opinions of the three reviewers were quite unprofessional, and one of them didn't say anything and just rejected it directly.

The review process is very strict. Although the reviewers all recommended rejection, they have provided detailed feedback on the issues, which is helpful for revising the paper. It is a very good journal, it seems that I need to work harder!

Bro, what's your situation now? Mine is the same as yours. December 30, 2021, with editor (revised draft); January 2, 2022, under review; until now (February 2, 2022), it's still under review. According to the norm, the second review of ECM shouldn't be this slow.

2022.1.2 under review
As of now (2022.1.24), it is still under review.

After submitting the revised manuscript, it has been more than 22 days under review. Has anyone encountered a similar situation?

The paper underwent the third review, and the editor found a new reviewer. They questioned the lack of innovation in my paper. The editor provided a 14-day minor revision period. Have any of you encountered this situation before? Let's discuss it!

From submission to acceptance took about two months, and after acceptance, it was available for online download in about a week. The process was quite fast. I consider myself lucky as there were only three comments from two reviewers, with one suggesting more changes. It went smoothly, although at one point, it made me think that I had submitted to a lower-ranking journal (truthfully, it made me a little sad).

Transferring to another journal generally will not increase the success rate, but it will save some processing time.

What is his alternative choice for you to switch to? Is it his sub-publication ECM X?

I would like to ask everyone, in this situation, does transferring directly from the system to a journal with editor's suggestion increase the chances of acceptance?

I applied on September 20th, and the delivery on the 22nd was delayed. Today, I received some advice, so please be patient. There will be good results.

Submitted at 12.15, the paper number is approximately 10700. This journal accepts around 1000 articles per year, so is the chance of acceptance less than 10%?

Hello, I want to ask how many days it usually takes for the status to change from "with editor" to "under review" after you submit your revised draft? I submitted my revisions yesterday, but it is still with the editor today. Previously, the transition from "with editor" to "under review" usually happened on the same day... I'm feeling nervous.

The efficiency is absolutely excellent. This journal has strict initial screening. Passing the initial screening by the editors and submitting it to the reviewers is already halfway to success.

accept-sun 2021-12-08

The result of the first review has come back, and both reviewers have provided positive feedback, without recommending rejection. In this case, I would like to ask if a third reviewer will still be sought for the second review?

I've read the comments, and other people usually wait around a month.
I've been waiting for one and a half months for this submission and it's still under review. What could be the reason for this? Has anyone else experienced the same issue?

The review process was very fast. There were two reviewers, and the second reviewer was a bit slow, but their comments were easy to address. It was my first SCI publication during my graduate studies, and the journal was excellent.

Translated text: "Submitted on July 25th and revised twice in between until October 20th. The editing was really effective, while the reviewers usually took one month to respond."

Hello, may I ask if there is a template for the initial draft format when submitting to this journal? Is it single-column or double-column? I saw on the website that there are no restrictions.

Fast and efficient, the editor never delays time, even for a day. Suggest submitting for speedy review while maintaining good quality. There were three reviewers, and during the first round of revisions, there were a total of 12 comments. Initially, it was unclear whether "modify-general changes" referred to major or minor revisions. After the first round of revisions, "Modify-general changes" was still requested, but only one reviewer provided 5 new comments, while the others suggested printing. The changes were relatively minor, and now it seems that "Modify-general changes" in this journal refers to minor revisions. This is a top-tier paper, and I would like to express my gratitude to the editor and the reviewers for their speed.

李珅 2021-10-10

Hello, the editor provided "Modify-general changes", with 12 suggestions. May I ask if it is a major revision or a minor revision? I haven't seen this status in other journals.

The first three reviewers only received a response from one person, who suggested rejecting the paper. It was evident from their comments that they were not researchers in the same field. The editor then sought two new reviewers from related fields, one for minor revisions and one for major revisions. In the second round of editing, the first reviewer was removed, and the editor, Lee, showed great professionalism. Although several rounds of revisions were made, the input from peers significantly improved the quality of the paper.

Sure, may I ask who your editor is? My editor is a Lebanese editor, and recently the reviewing process seems to have slowed down. I'm getting a little anxious waiting. ?

The editing process was quite fast. It was my first submission to an ECM journal and second submission to an SCI journal. The overall speed was quite fast, with completion within three months. I will continue to submit in the future.
