How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates all disposed applications across the examiner's assigned art unit(s). The 18% allowance rate describes past outcomes on decided cases and is not a prediction of any specific application's outcome. Aggregate statistics describe what occurred historically and remain distinct from any individual application's prosecution. Review of individual art-unit records and case-by-case examination history may provide additional detail.
