How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates an examiner's history across multiple art units within a single technology center. The allowance rate is computed from decided applications only—allowed plus abandoned—and does not include pending filings. Aggregate figures describe historical dispositions and are not predictions about any specific application or art unit. Individual art-unit performance may differ from the pooled average.
