Normally, I have been with the Editor for a long time, but once the Editor is specified, it usually takes about a month and a half to find reviewers.

This magazine will keep making revisions until all reviewers agree, fortunately, most reviewers are quite friendly.

MR Analysis Experience Sharing: Asking friends, is peer review currently counted as external review, or is it in the invited review stage? It has been more than 40 days, unsure if I should follow up on the submission under peer review.
