Why a manuscript is rejected?
The most common reasons for desk rejection were lack of novelty or being out of the journal’s scope. Inappropriate study designs, poor methodological descriptions, poor quality of writing, and weak study rationale were the most common rejection reasons mentioned by both peer reviewers and editorial re-reviewers.
Is revise and resubmit good?
Authors should view an invitation to revise and resubmit as good news because it means the journal has found value with the article. If authors make a considered effort to address reviewers’ comments, then in all proba- bility, the resubmitted article will be accepted for publication.

All researchers should seek to publish their work in peer-reviewed journals, but to publish it more than once (without a special reason and clear cross-referencing) is not acceptable.
What happens if you submit an article to two journals?
This is known as simultaneous or concurrent submission and is considered as an unethical practice. This is because it leads to a waste of academic and scientific resources as two or more journals would spend time and money on carrying out the same tasks. If your paper is rejected, you can submit it to another journal.
What is the acceptance rate for revised manuscripts with a major revision decision?
Papers having two reviewers’ recommendations to accept and minor revision have much greater chance of acceptance (more than 98%) than papers receiving two reviewers’ recommendations that include a major revision and a reject or two rejections (which results in an acceptance rate of less than 5%): (Figure 1).
Does major revision mean accepted?
To my experience, major revision in general leads to the acceptance of a manuscript reviewed and re-reviewed for several rounds. Minor revision may undergo referee evaluation; however, in most cases, the editor accepts the paper without sending the revised manuscript to the reviewer.
Why was my paper rejected without review?
(1) The manuscript should clearly articulate the environmental relevance of the work, its novelty relative to prior works, and its potential impact in the introduction and discussion sections of the manuscript. The absence of this contextualization is a primary reason papers are rejected without review.
Why are papers rejected?
The reasons for a paper being rejected once it has been reviewed fall mainly into two categories: (1) problems with the research; and (2) problems with the writing/presentation of the paper. A paper may be rejected because of problems with the research on which it is based.
Can You resubmit a rejected paper to the same journal?
Then I submitted my paper to its parent journal (IF is about 6.6) and it became again “editor reject”, but it recommended a submission to the former journal which rejected my paper, and also a transfer service was attached.

Is it bad to submit to the same journal?
The danger to submit to the same journal is that you may end up with the same editor and the same reviewers. That may not necessarily be all bad but with a new journal you will likely have a fresh look at your paper.
What does it mean if Journal suggests resubmission?
If the journal suggests resubmission, I suppose it is a more ambiguous situation. Major revision (specially in good journals) means soft rejection. That is somehow good idea but we won’t publish it. It is better to polish the paper again and submit it somewhere else. – seteropere Nov 6 ’13 at 16:56
What to do if your paper is rejected in peer review?
If your paper has gone through peer review, you can consider submitting an extensively revised version of the paper to the same journal, provided the rejection is not due to a mismatch with the journal’s scope. In your place I would make the changes suggested in the feedback and send the paper to another journal.
