Is "Under review" after three days the same as being sent for review? Or is it only considered as "UnderReview" in uppercase for being sent for review?

First rejection and resubmission
Second revision
Then direct acceptance
There is a relatively high requirement for the innovation of the article.

The editor has a low tolerance for language and experimental design. The initial draft that does not meet the requirements will be rejected.
The impact factor does not increase as fast as imagined.
There are not many journals in the field of robotics, and RA-L is one of the few second-tier journals under top journals such as Science Robotics, Soft Robotics, and TR-O.

The article I am currently reviewing has been accepted by Ral and the corresponding conference paper will be published on IRos. I am the third reviewer. But actually, at this stage, I feel it is meaningless as the previous two reviewers have already completed the journal review process. Perhaps the editor did it for safety reasons.

"Received" means that it is still in the evaluation stage and has not yet been submitted for review. When it is "under review," it means that it is being reviewed.

The reviewer examined it very carefully, with a high level of expertise, and provided insightful comments. It was completed in a rush for graduation, but fortunately, it was finally accepted. I hope the journal continues to improve.

After I submitted my manuscript, the status has been "received" all along. May I ask how long it will take for this status to change? Does it mean that the review process has not started yet?

9/9/2021 Submission,
12/24/2021 Accepted after major revision, very professional feedback
1/2/2022 Submitted to the publisher after minor revision

The reviewer was very strict and provided a lot of modification suggestions while giving unanimous praise. However, it was difficult to cover everything in the 6-page length, so I reluctantly deleted several charts and paragraphs. The journal is of a very high standard, and I hope my work can contribute to the industry. I also hope that RA-L will become a top journal in the field of Robotics in 2022.

2021.09.09 RA-L with ICRA Submission - Submitted to RA-L and ICRA on September 9, 2021.
2021.11.12 revise and resubmit - Revised version submitted on November 12, 2021.

Regarding your question, "next decision due" in the submission system refers to the deadline for the editor to make a decision.

The initial review took two months, and all three reviewers were very diligent and responsible, raising many questions and suggestions. I wrote over ten pages of replies based solely on their comments.
The second review took a little over a month, and I received the acceptance notification.
In summary, the journal has high efficiency, and the requirements of the reviewers and editors are also strict. Lastly, I wish everyone's paper gets accepted soon!

The conference also refers to the first-instance opinions of RAL, and the editors responsible for IROS review will usually make the decision directly, without sending it to new reviewers again.

After an article is accepted by RA-L, will the corresponding conference paper be reviewed by reviewers? Or will the conference editor directly provide the result based on the journal's review comments?

Actuator_szy 2021-12-17

After receiving RA-L, do we still need to submit the manuscript to reviewers for review, or will the conference editor directly provide the results based on the journal's review comments?

Actuator_szy 2021-12-17

After RA-L receives the manuscript, does the conference still need to be reviewed by reviewers? Or will the conference editor give the final decision based on the journal's review comments?

Allen 2021-12-16

Did the editor not encourage you to resubmit?

Allen 2021-12-16

May I ask if your article was jointly submitted by RAL and ICRA? Was the initial review feedback to revise and resubmit?

Actuator 2021-12-15

The efficiency of the journal is very high, taking a little over three months from submission to acceptance, and Next decision due is provided at each stage. The reviewers are also very professional and responsible, providing many meaningful suggestions for improving the quality of the article. Highly recommended!

Allen 2021-12-13

May I ask, are you "reject and resubmit" or "revise and resubmit"?

Wzzhxy1 2021-11-29

Hello, I would like to ask about the final submission steps for RAL. After uploading the Multimedia Materials, there is no response. How can I tell if it has been submitted?

daxiahaha 2021-11-24

I had a submission that was rejected, but after being encouraged to make revisions by the AE, I resubmitted it. In May of this year, it was accepted after the modifications.

daxiahaha 2021-11-24

I submitted an article on road planning, and received very positive feedback from four reviewers and the editor. They believe the article has great potential, but the amount of revisions required is too much to be completed within a month. Therefore, they encourage me to make the suggested revisions and resubmit it.

The journal changed its editor midway, and there has been no news for almost 7 months. It's really frustrating.

haoyunhappy 2021-09-25

May I ask if the introduction of this journal as a mixed journal means that it can be both paid and unpaid?

daxiahaha 2021-09-23

Submitted a paper related to coverage-based path planning, the reviewer was very professional. Submitted in May and received the second review acceptance notice in September, the speed was very fast.

千里独行 2021-09-18

Thank you very much. I would like to ask you again, was the advice given by the editor at the time a rejection or a rejection with encouragement to resubmit?

吴迪 2021-09-15

I was rejected and resubmitted at that time. I responded to the reviewer's comments and was accepted after one month.

千里独行 2021-09-13

I want to ask, if I have been rejected, can I reapply? Does anyone have a similar experience?

风划过的未来 2021-08-20

Hello, may I ask if you have received the result of your first review for your thesis? It has been nearly two months since my first review.

天落微微雨 2021-07-30

Big brother, you haven't submitted it for review yet.

cpJiang 2021-07-27

Hello, after I submitted my application, it has always been in the "Received" status without any changes. I'm not sure if yours is the same. It's my first time applying, so I'm not very familiar with the process.

piggy_one 2021-07-26

Brother, our situations are similar. Even the teacher didn't have much hope for me, but I gave it a try and unexpectedly succeeded. Let's keep working hard and encourage each other.
