A special issue of the Remote Sensing journal was submitted on June 21, 2021. It is now July 21, 2021, and the result of the first review has not yet been received. I'm in a hurry. Is it possible that the review process for special issues is slower?

6.24 Accept external audit under review
7.7 Edit for the first time and decide to ask for additional reviewer
Still under review until now, does this mean it's not going well?

The likelihood of success is very high! I have also read many comments, as long as the initial review is not rejected, there is a great hope, just wait patiently.

After I submitted my application on the 7th, there has been no news since it went under review. I also don't know if it has been rejected.

It seems that there is no concept of internal and external auditing in this context.

Kelly250230225 2021-07-20

Does the original poster mean that if the status is "under review," there won't be a tragedy? Previously, I submitted to another journal, also a second-tier one, not MDPI. After the initial review, it took two months for the external review, and it was still rejected. Now I am submitting to RS, but I see many comments in the comment section saying that the situation is not optimistic. I feel like I will also be rejected. My submission was sent for external review on the same day, and it has been about half a month now. I am anxious!

Kelly250230225 2021-07-20

You are really surprised, according to reason, pending review should have given a result.

Kelly250230225 2021-07-20

So scary, on the first day of submission, it was already sent for review. It has been half a month since then, and there is still no news at all.

Could it be a case of encountering a change in editors? I have noticed that there have been frequent editor changes in this comment section. Can I ask via email?

The manuscript was submitted on June 29th and was sent for review three days later. Then, on July 17th, an editor from a journal related to sensors contacted me, suggesting that I submit the paper to their journal. However, the direction did not align with my research, and considering the low risk of rejection by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, I decided not to transfer the paper. I rejected the offer. Three days later, I received the reviewer's comments, and the editor rejected my paper, stating that it was out of scope. I noticed that the reviewer's comments actually recommended publication, so why did the editor reject it after sending it for review? Why didn't they reject it earlier if it was out of scope? What is the process for transferring to another journal? I am truly confused about this journal.

Everyone generally reflects that the review speed is super fast (2-3 weeks). However, unfortunately, my submission has been under review for almost 40 days and still no decision has been made. The outcome is unknown.
Therefore, the review period still has a great deal of flexibility, and those who pursue speed should also consider it.

How is it going now? Also, how can we check if the reviewer has provided comments in the system? Is it on the "under review" page?

wyuan1 2021-07-20

The first review has been close to 40 days now, and I may be the slowest one to submit to this journal. I wonder if the editor has forgotten about my article, as it has been under review for so long.

树熊 2021-07-19

You are being under review and waiting for an external audit. As long as the initial review goes well, the possibility of success is very high.

Kelly250230225 2021-07-18

May I ask if you have made any changes to these two, or are you submitting the same article again?

树熊 2021-07-17

I have submitted twice, both times were rejected in the initial review, and neither was sent for further review. It feels like they didn't even look at it carefully. I won't submit again next time.

Kelly250230225 2021-07-15

Have you been hired?

The translation of the text into English is: "Insufficient word count equals insufficient workload, language and charts with problems equal flawed logical structure. Do you think this can be published?"

Kelly250230225 2021-07-09

The traditional journal I submitted to, there were no comments from the editor, just the reviewers' comments.

范德路易彪 2021-07-09

May I ask what happened to you in the end, after the pending editor decision?

Kelly250230225 2021-07-09

Hello, may I ask if "under review" means it has been sent for external review? What does "under review" refer to specifically? Is it about capitalization? Some people say that lowercase letters indicate internal review. I submitted my article on the 7th, and it changed to "under review" on the same day as "pending review." I am currently waiting.

Submitting a thesis is like crossing a river on a small horse, and everyone experiences it differently. It is for reference only.

Process:
Submitted on June 13th;
Returned for initial review on June 28th. Minor revisions and major revisions were suggested by the academic editor, and ultimately determined to require minor revisions.
Accepted on July 9th.
Evaluation: This submission went relatively smoothly, mainly because I wanted to get it published. I used two slightly innovative ideas (originally planned to write two separate papers, but due to nearing graduation, I merged them to increase the chances of acceptance). I had previously submitted to TGRS and GRS Letter (for different articles), and felt that the reviewers from domestic journals were more sharp and had some unreasonable opinions. This time, the reviewer first affirmed the ideas in the paper and then provided improvement suggestions, which were quite fair.
Overall, I feel that the editor was responsible and the reviewer's comments were reasonable. The journal has a moderate level of influence.

How are you doing now, OP?

JYT 2021-07-08

Will "Udner review" become "Udner Review"?

wyuan1 2021-07-08

The submission was sent for review on the second day, and now it has been under review for 27 days. Is it a bad sign to wait for the first review for so long?

亲爱的小李 2021-07-07

If it takes too long, it usually means rejection because the editor needs time to write a rejection letter for you. Of course, it is also possible to ask for revisions or directly accept the submission. There are no absolutes, and it is best not to ask about the length of time. Patience is required while waiting for the outcome. Academic editors have absolute authority in this journal, and even if the reviewers agree with your submission, the academic editor may still reject it directly. There is nothing to be said about this. Since you have submitted to their journal, you must follow their rules.

范德路易彪 2021-07-07

May I ask how you have been lately?

zzz86 2021-07-06

I would like to ask, how long does it usually take for pending review to change to under review? It has been 4 days and it is still in the pending review status. Thank you~

zzz86 2021-07-06

It has been 4 days since submitting the paper, and it hasn't reached the "under review" stage yet. Is this normal?
