How to read these numbers.

A pooled record aggregates dispositions across multiple art units, producing an overall allowance rate that represents the examiner's combined history. The 67% allowance rate reflects 110 allowed applications out of 163 total decided cases. Because this figure pools different art units, it does not isolate performance in any single area. Aggregate historical rates are descriptions of past record only and are not predictions of outcomes on individual applications.
