Examiner Zahid Choudhury has allowed 791 of 906 decided applications (87%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Zahid Choudhury maintains a public record across 3 art units within Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Over 906 disposed applications, the allowance rate is 87%. This rate reflects 791 allowed applications and 115 abandoned applications. The allowance rate ranges from 80% to 96% across these art units, indicating variation in outcomes across the different subject areas within TC 2100 where this examiner works. The record spans a substantial application volume, providing a baseline view of historical disposition patterns.
This pooled record aggregates data across multiple art units, each handling distinct subject-matter areas within TC 2100. The 87% allowance rate describes past outcomes on 906 decided applications and is not a prediction of any specific application's outcome. Aggregate figures mask variation—the 80% to 96% range shows that allowance rates differ among the art units included here. Individual applications may fall anywhere within or outside historical ranges depending on claim scope, prior art, and examination specifics.
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. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Zahid Choudhury 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: 927 applications.

These statistics describe past examiner behavior and do not predict the outcome of any particular application. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. 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.
