WTF!!! When I submitted last year, it was still in the second tier. Is this considered an established botany journal? And now it has been downgraded to the third tier? The ranking system of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is becoming more and more ridiculous! This is absurd!!

Can only say that the Chinese Academy of Sciences is awesome. This journal is considered relatively old in the field of botany. You managed to get it into Zone 3, and as for JIA, you directly put it in Zone 1's top 3 within 3 years. Hahaha.

Why is yours so fast? It has been almost four months since my first trial, and there is still no news.

The first SCI paper was quite tortuous. When I received the news of resubmission and reevaluation during the first review, I felt like the sky was falling. One reviewer doubted the originality, but the editor did not reject it. So I wrote a tearful response emphasizing the novelty. Then came the lengthy second review, which took even longer than the first. Fortunately, the reviewer who rejected it during the first review was convinced, and another reviewer provided some minor suggestions. The editor then requested major revisions, which I completed, and without sending it for external review, they informed me of acceptance in advance and even provided free language polishing.

I feel that the resubmission and reevaluation during the first review was actually a major revision, and the major revision during the second review was actually a minor one. As long as the editor doesn't reject it, there is a chance. Overall, the review process for my paper is relatively long. It may be different from the journal's previous style. I've seen people accepting within forty-something days in the journal, but my first and second reviews have taken almost two months each, adding up to nearly half a year.

Hello, I have been applying for nearly four months now, but still haven't received any news. I am anxious to graduate and wanted to ask if you have followed up with the editor.

Hello, how are you? I have been applying for nearly four months, but there's still no news. I am anxious to graduate, so I wanted to ask if you have followed up with the editors.

My two-month trial has not returned either.

It has been over 3 months since the submission, but there is still no feedback from the reviewer. I'm not sure if I should remind the editor or not. I'm getting anxious!

May I ask how long the first trial will take? I'm in a bit of a hurry. Thank you all in advance.

I have reviewed and submitted papers for this journal before. I would like to share my experiences for everyone's reference.

Submission: This journal has multiple editors. The Chinese editor is specifically responsible for handling Chinese manuscripts. The Chinese editor is very efficient, going online once every day on average. As long as the submission shows "Under Review," it means that the manuscript has been sent to the reviewers, and we just need to wait patiently.

Review: I had one paper accepted before, and later I received an invitation to review a paper with a deadline of 10 days. The manuscript sent to me was honestly of poor quality, with language and content issues. However, the manuscript had some innovative aspects, so I provided major revisions. After I submitted my comments, another reviewer also submitted their comments a few days later, and our opinions were similar. The editor gave us an opportunity to revise. From this, it can be seen that for this journal, as long as the paper has some innovation, the editor will send it for review. Good luck to everyone!

The difficulty shouldn't be too great, and it seems like I can move at a decent speed.

Excuse me, is this journal difficult? Is it fast-paced?

Overall, it is quite fast. Submitted on May 18th, revised on June 22nd, returned later due to a business trip, and finally returned for revisions on August 22nd. After the return, the article was accepted on September 8th.

I really want to complain. In March, I received the first review comments, but there were very few opinions from the two reviewers. The editor requested revisions. After submitting the revised manuscript, the second review took 5 months to complete. I then sent two reminders, but on September 14th, it was directly rejected. Sigh...
