Peer Review
50%rejection after peer review
According to an article on Elsevier, more than 50% rejections occur after the peer review process. This process can take anywhere from 30 to 120 days. This crucial time is wasted when a manuscript is not competent for further procedure and hence rejected. A manuscript is rejected at this stage due to various reasons, such as lack of originality, serious conceptual and/or methodological flaws, or poor grammar or English language issues.
