Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.

| §102 only | 1 (25%) |
| §112 only | 1 (25%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 2 (50%) |
