How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates decisions across one art unit and describes past outcomes. The 85% allowance rate is calculated from 26 decided applications and reflects what occurred in those cases. Aggregate figures describe an examiner's overall pattern and are not predictions about any specific application. Individual art units may be reviewed separately on this website; pooled records combine all units under an examiner's name.
