// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This examiner's record is pooled across a single art unit, aggregating applications in TC 2100. Pooled allowance rates describe past decisions across multiple applications and art units but are not predictions for any specific case. Aggregate figures reflect historical patterns and do not indicate how any given application will be examined or decided. Each application is examined individually on its merits.

These are aggregate statistics from this examiner's past public record — not predictions about any specific application. The per-art-unit figures below show how the record varies across art units. Our approach to patent prosecution →

METHODOLOGY & DISCLOSURES

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Uzma Alam has a public record within Technology Center 2100. Statistics are computed from publicly available USPTO records, refreshed on a recurring schedule. This page's data was last updated June 25, 2026. The overall allowance rate is total allowed divided by total decided applications (allowed plus abandoned) across all art units — not an average of the per-art-unit rates; pending applications are excluded. Figures are rounded for display. Pooled sample: 30 applications.

Where this page compares an examiner's allowance rate to an art-unit average, that comparison is a factual description of the public record, not a characterization of any individual examiner's conduct or competence.
