Furthermore, I would like to share an additional detail. The reviewer who rejected the paper in the third round mentioned in the second round of reviews that "The current version is a big improvement over the previous version. The study is interesting..." So, in the future, if any of you encounter a similar situation, there is no need to worry. The editor-in-chief and associate editors will take it into consideration, and generally, they will not reject the paper arbitrarily. If you come across a reviewer who is more critical, even if the basic content of the paper is good, consider it as building your own reputation when reviewing other papers. Haha.

Doctor's first article, good things are hard to come by, the third major revision and rejection.

2021.8.18: Submitted
2021.10.7: Major revision, 4 reviewers, nearly 50 comments, reviewers with different perspectives
2021.11.17: Redo experiments, resubmitted
2022.1.4: Major revision, 1 acceptance, many minor comments for minor revision, 1 unknown reviewer with only two comments, 1 reviewer with many comments
2022.1.28: Resubmitted
2022.4.10: Major revision, the other three reviewers accepted it, but the reviewer with many comments surprisingly rejected it... Checked the submission system status between associate editors and editor-in-chief from March 28th to April 10th, and my supervisor analyzed that there might be significant differences in the reviewers' opinions. As expected, one reviewer rejected it in this round! The editor-in-chief said that a rejection in the third round is extremely rare. It's really frustrating because some of the comments seemed intentionally nitpicky, and my supervisor and I didn't fully agree with them, but we still responded to the comments honestly.
2022.5.3: Resubmitted
2022.5.5: Awaiting AE Recommendation
2022.5.9: Awaiting EIC decision, and it was accepted on the same day. This time, it seems that it wasn't sent back to that reviewer, the associate editor and editor-in-chief made the decision directly.
The above serves as a reference for colleagues encountering special situations. As long as the editor-in-chief gives the opportunity to revise, don't give up. There will be good results. I wish everyone a smooth research life and the publication of top papers.

Has your awaiting AE status changed?

审稿人 2022-05-05

2022.4.1-2022.5.1, In EIC office
5.10, Under Review

笨柳 2022-04-27

4.27 still awaiting AE recommendation. This status feels less common than "under review".

alphago 2022-04-22

My boss said in the notice from TIE to AE that it is not allowed to add reviewers again after one round, and it is no longer allowed to make changes in three or four rounds. Therefore, it is unreasonable for you to add reviewers in the middle.

笨柳 2022-04-21

So, what was your final result? According to reason, the deputy editor-in-chief should have given the result within a week, right?

Lyw1995 2022-04-21

It's okay, no need to worry. I have waited for an associate editor for one or two months before.

笨柳 2022-04-21

Still waiting for the deputy editor's recommendation, the status has not changed.

笨柳 2022-04-18

During Easter? Still no result.

笨柳 2022-04-16

The status is still the same, 4.16.

Submitted on October 26, 2021.
Major revision on December 11, 2021, with five reviewers and 26 suggestions.
Submitted on January 29, 2022.
Major revision on March 1, 2022, with only three reviewers. One new reviewer asked 10 questions, while the other reviewers had one minor question.
Submitted on March 16, 2022.
Minor revision on April 13, 2022. The new reviewer was dissatisfied and provided 13 "minor comments," but the reviewer who had a minor question last time is now satisfied. The Associate Editor (AE) suggested submitting as a new paper, but the decision was to proceed with a minor revision.

Currently, it is strange that the AE's comments encourage resubmission, but the Editor-in-Chief (EIC) decided to go with a minor revision. Upon emailing the EIC for clarification, they advised me to make substantial modifications and address the reviewers' questions, disregarding the AE's comments.

The first submission was rejected, with five reviewers, it's really too slow. Those who want to graduate early, please do not submit.

雀巢咖啡 2022-04-12

Okay, waited for AE's recommendation status to last for a day, and then it went under review again.

Brothers, my status has changed to waiting for AE's recommendation.

北平线 2022-04-07

My EIC status lasted for 8 days before the result came out, it might indeed be slow recently.

yorkkk 2022-04-07

Has the OP received any updates? It has been over a week since I have been awaiting AE recommendation.

yorkkk 2022-04-07

Too slow. It has been almost four months since I submitted the manuscript in mid-December last year.

帝鎷 2022-04-02

March 3rd submission

Johnxuxu 2022-04-01

In another two or three days, it will be four months.

雀巢咖啡 2022-04-01

It's April 1st, it's been more than 70 days, and the first trial verdict hasn't come back yet. Sigh.

Initial review took two months, and four experts provided more than 20 suggestions for major revisions, some of which were very professional and of high quality. The revised version was submitted within 20 days and an acceptance email was received. Generally, if the revisions are made according to the suggestions, there is a great chance of acceptance. The following timeline is provided for reference:

First review:
November 23, 2021: submission
January 26, 2022: major revisions
March 6, 2022: resubmission
March 24, 2022: awaiting AE recommendation
March 26, 2022: EIC decision
March 27, 2022: Accept
