How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates examination activity within TC 2100 across one art unit. The allowance rate of 15% describes past dispositions—allowed and abandoned applications combined—and reflects the examiner's historical pattern. Aggregate figures describe what has occurred, not what will occur in any specific pending or future application. Individual case outcomes depend on claim scope, prior art, and prosecution history.
