Sec. 1.1623 Probability calculation.
(a) All calculations shall be computed to no less than three significant
digits. Probabilities will be truncated to the number of significant digits
used in a particular lottery.
(b) Divide the total number of applicants into 1.00 to determine
pre-preference probabilities.
(c) Multiply each applicant's pre-preference probability by the applicable
preference from Sec. 1.1622 (b)(2) or (b)(3).
(d) Divide each applicant's probability pursuant to paragraph (c) of this
section by the sum of such probabilities to determine intermediate
probabilities.
(e) Add the intermediate probabilities of all applicants who received a
preference pursuant to Sec. 1.1622 (b)(2) or (b)(3).
(f)(1) If the sum pursuant to paragraph (e) of this section is .40 or
greater, proceed to paragraph (g) of this section.
(2) If the sum pursuant to paragraph (e) of this section is less than .40,
then multiply each such intermediate probability by the ratio of .40 to such
sum. Divide .60 by the number of applicants who did not receive a preference
pursuant to Sec. 1.1622 (b)(2) or (b)(3) to determine their new intermediate
probabilities.
(g) Multiply each applicant's probability pursuant to paragraph (f) of this
section by the applicable preference ratio from Sec. 1.1622(b)(1).
(h) Divide each applicant's probability pursuant to paragraph (g) of this
section by the sum of such probabilities to determine the final selection
percentage.
