Question Description:
Dear Dr. Cerejo
I submitted a paper to a Springer journal about 2 months ago. The online tracking system status was as follows:
17 Apr: New submission
18 Apr: Editor assigned
08 May: Under review
27 May: Reviews completed
29 May: Under review
06 Jun: Under review
25 Jun: Reviewers assigned
Could you please tell me what is the meaning of under review and reviews completed in this situation? Was the manuscript all this time with the associate editor and just sent now to peer review?
