Case number explaination

thanks for the links Shivaji - i have read all that and am still confused whether my number is high or low, because my number would appear to be low, but for my region it is one of the last for processing - so kinda doesn't make sense!
 
Case numbers represent the order your name was drawn relative to all the other people drawn from your region. So if you're the 10th person selected from Oceania, your case number will be 2012OC00000010. You might have been the 23546th person drawn in the world but because you were only the 10th from Oceania you get a very low case number.

This is because there are restrictions as to the number of visas that can be granted per region.
