This 83.4% rate indicates that a large majority of the applications in his portfolio result in a grant.

For the 735 resolved cases, this 981-day period represents the median duration from filing to issuance for successful applications.

The data shows an interview lift pct of 6.8%. This 6.8% lift is an increase in the probability of allowance when an interview is conducted compared to the 83.4% baseline allowance rate. This suggests that direct communication with the examiner is a method for resolving outstanding rejections. Practitioners can use the 6.8% lift to evaluate the impact of an interview, as it correlates with a higher success rate than the baseline. The 981-day median suggests that the process in Art Unit 2618 is relatively efficient for the 735 resolved cases.
