Latest review

First review round: 26.0 weeks. Overall rating: 2 (moderate). Outcome: Accepted.

Motivation:
My overall experience and communication with editors was good. Both editors and reviewers were competent in their handling of the manuscript. The paper was accepted with minor revisions approximately 6 months after the submission. However, post acceptance handling was very lengthy. Between submission and publication it took around 2 full years. So, I would not suggest it for PhD students or scholars who are in a rush with publishing their work.
