I just submitted my first article. How long does it usually take for it to get reviewed and accepted or rejected??? Thanks!

It varies between a few hours to a few days. It depends on how many are in the queue, how much work they need for Ed to make his decisions, and whether they are offered to customers through the public and private request systems. These usually go to the top of the queue.

Hope you had a good read of the guidelines before submitting. Lots of rejections are just because the articles don't comply with these. It's also a good idea to browse through the forums where many questions are answered.

Good luck and welcome to the site.
