Most manuscripts are not accepted upon their first submission for
publication, in fact, most are rejected without peer review. This type of
rejection is often done by the editor within 24 hours to a week after
submission. Immediate rejection is a frustrating experience, and you
may be disappointed or angry, but it is no reason to despair. You just
need to select another journal, change the layout of the manuscript to match the new journal´s format, and submit it again.
If the reviewers suggested that your manuscript needs to be revised before it can be accepted you get a second chance at getting it just right.
