// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates dispositions across multiple art units within TC 2100. The 37% allowance rate describes the examiner's historical outcomes on decided applications and does not constitute a prediction for any specific application. Pooled figures smooth variations across different art-unit subject matter and prosecution patterns. Individual art-unit records may differ from the aggregate and appear in a separate section of the profile.

These are aggregate statistics from this examiner's past public record — not predictions about any specific application. The per-art-unit figures below show how the record varies across art units. Our approach to patent prosecution →
