May I ask which editor you have chosen?

陈晓璐 2022-05-25

Hello, because some of the data has not been published yet, I would like to ask if it is necessary to upload the original data for this journal?

Industry leaders are reviewers who have provided many constructive suggestions and can respond on the same day. It takes about a month for the submission to be accepted. Although it is said that Frontiers has a reputation for being strict, this stereotype needs to be changed. The industry leaders have also published many articles on FM, so the quality is not necessarily poor.

After going through BT, JAFC, ICP, I finally submitted to FM, surprisingly fast. The review results came out in a week, with 2 minor revisions and a total of 9 issues. The editor gave me a week to make revisions, and after addressing one more minor issue in the second review, it was accepted quickly. Best wishes for FM's continued success!

May I ask what the entire manuscript revision process is like? How do I submit the revised manuscript? Thank you.

SDU-GYJ 2022-03-14

The review process was fast, and modification suggestions were given within half a month. There were two reviewers. Reviewer 1 suggested major revisions and asked 5 questions, providing some modified charts. Reviewer 2 suggested minor revisions, but their status was directly endorsed. Their suggestions mainly involved in-depth discussions and grammar modifications. The submission was made on January 25th and accepted on March 1st.

Fast review speed, high efficiency.

WJH 2022-03-02

The speed is really fast. One week for editorial distribution and two reviewers directly agreed to publish.

大胖龟 2022-02-15

Which aspects of work will require the provision of original data? Thank you.

1234512 2022-02-14

It varies due to work.

大胖龟 2022-02-12

Do you need to submit the original data?

One month later, both reviewers requested major revisions. The first reviewer agreed to accept the manuscript directly, while the second reviewer also agreed after resubmission and further revisions within ten days. The speed was so fast that it was hard to believe.

I would like to ask, have you made your publication? How long did it take from receiving it to publication?

LiuBoBo 2022-02-04

I want to ask, if two out of three reviewers agreed to publish, can I reply to the editor without considering the third reviewer? The third reviewer is obviously being difficult.

Why are you guys so fast? I submitted mine on January 17th, and it's been a week, but it's still in initial validation.

CHEN_ 2022-01-14

Posted on 7.22, received two review comments on 8.11. Was given 10 days for minor revisions and submitted the revised manuscript on 8.23. Both reviewers agreed to publish on the same day, and it was accepted for publication on the next day. Proofreading was requested on 9.2. Overall, the process went very smoothly for my first SCI paper. The efficiency of the editor and reviewers was commendable.

It is worth noting that when sending back the revised manuscript, do not click "submit" after writing the comments. Upload the revised manuscript first and then click "finish." If you click "submit" after writing the comments, the revised manuscript will not be uploaded (you can email the journal's technical support to resolve this issue). I made this mistake and it took me an extra two days to fix it.

In the first review, there were three reviewers, two minor revisions, and one major revision. It took two weeks to make the revisions. However, the reviewer who provided suggestions for the major revision disagreed with publishing the article, resulting in its rejection.

Which school is it, please?

美淑人 2021-12-01

May I ask which school is it?

5464641kjhjkhh 2021-11-30

The feedback on the major renovation has come back, and the most tragic thing is that the school has blacklisted FM, and then they sent an email requesting a manuscript submission again.

HY~ 2021-11-15

Both external reviews are minor revisions, as there were three different editors due to various circumstances. Overall, the speed of article review within three months is average. In the future, if there is a stagnation of nearly a month at any stage of submission, it is necessary to send an email to urge the editorial department.

letpub知鱼 2021-11-09

Excuse me, teacher, which editor are you using?

Lucky_cc 2021-11-02

The speed is quite fast, and there are similar articles in the magazine. The review comments all require major revisions, and the opinions given by the reviewers are very fair, with at least 15 comments each.
