May I ask how your status is? I submitted on the 13th and it is still pending review.

帅b 2023-06-17

After the reminder for submission, a major revision was given with a deadline of 10 days. There are a total of 4 reviewers, and the opinions of two reviewers have been received and are being incorporated.

I am the same, PR.

风seed 2023-06-16

Okay, thank you! Has your review status changed? Mine is still pending review, it's been the 4th day, so I guess the possibility of rejection is high.

Fanson 2023-06-16

No, it is not allowed. It must be changed because the same journal has the same editor. I have already asked.

风seed 2023-06-16

I probably will be rejected. I have a question. The special issue I previously submitted to seems to be not suitable for the topic. After the article was rejected, can I submit it to another special issue of the same journal?

Fanson 2023-06-16

If it exceeds two days in general, it means the process has been rejected. I have already been rejected twice.

daisy锅 2023-06-16

Also submitted on the 14th, still pending review, hope to be selected.

风seed 2023-06-15

Has the status of the manuscript changed?

风seed 2023-06-15

I voted on the 13th, but the status hasn't changed yet. Has yours been under review?

风seed 2023-06-15

I submitted it on June 13th, and it is still pending review.

Remember to share the feedback messages, humble contributor~

Fanson 2023-06-14

Are the journals under MDPI recently very slow? The material I submitted on the 12th is still pending review and there has been no progress for 3 days.

风seed 2023-06-14

Submitted, hoping for good luck.

Cecily 2023-06-13

What happened later? It has been six days and still in PR.

帅b 2023-06-13

Water, I have observed the first decision time of the entire journal's latest 10 articles, which averages 35.6 days. Therefore, this journal is currently slow.

蔚蓝 2023-06-12

May I ask which direction your article is in? I am measuring land ecological safety, and it has been a month.

帅b 2023-06-12

May I ask if GPT polishing is done by sending it to him paragraph by paragraph or by giving him the entire text to polish? I am still in the UR for 33 days now, so I wanted to ask in advance.

小明儿 2023-06-12

The whole process is all about speed. My feeling is that the thesis still needs to focus on logic and clearly demonstrate the innovative points. The first chapter and the final simulation experiment should be well written. As for the models and algorithms afterwards, maybe nobody has looked at them and the reviewers didn't provide any suggestions. All I can say is that if I want to graduate, I should consider it. As for whether it is good or not, it's hard to say. I haven't submitted to other journals, but I know my own paper. It's not that bad. However, this journal has lower requirements for innovation. In other words, the thesis should at least look formal and impressive.

2023.4.23 Submission
2023.4.24 Assigned Editor - under review
2023.5.11 Major Revisions - The editor requested significant revisions, with a total of four reviewers providing their comments. Two reviewers had minimal comments, one had a substantial number of comments, but they were mostly positive. The fourth reviewer provided many substantial comments, although they did not involve the core model and algorithm. The revisions were manageable. Due to this, the editor provided eight days for revisions, which may be considered between major and minor revisions. We responded to each reviewer's comments, resulting in over 40 pages of revisions. The reviewers also mentioned English issues and suggested professional editing services. To save money (the editing fee was over 3000), I used chatGpt for some editing, and the results were satisfactory. Returned on 5.18.
2023.5.19 Accepted - This was incredibly fast.
2023.5.20-5.21 One day was given for final proofreading.
2023.5.19-5.24 Five days were given to make the payment. I used my school account for an international wire transfer, which was convenient. The fee was quite expensive, 17000. If it wasn't for my professor covering the cost, I definitely wouldn't have submitted this.
2023.5.22 Published - The article was published on the same evening the payment was made. Very fast.
2023.6.12 Web of Science - The article can now be searched.

MDPI journal review process is fast, but the quality of the reviews is not particularly good. However, I am still happy to be accepted for publication.

真真安安加油 2023-06-12

Excuse me, I have a question. I am still underview, but I received an email about a preprint. What does this mean? Does it mean it has been accepted?

帅b 2023-06-09

Today, June 9th, I still haven't received any news about mine and it's still under review. I saw a guy who submitted on May 30th and got it back for major revisions on June 7th. I'm so jealous.

蔚蓝 2023-06-09

Hello, I submitted on 5.10 and have not received the result of the external review on 6.9. How about you, my friend? Have you received any feedback? We are anxiously waiting!

What is your current status now?

帅b 2023-06-08

Submitted on the 29th day, it's so slow. Even the results for papers from Elsevier, which I love, have come out, but there is still no news from MDPI.
