Law School Data accuracy

How reliable is Law School Data vis a vis Law School Numbers? What are your feedback about this website regarding accuracy on law school chances for each GPA/Lsat combo?

The data seems relatively useful (except for the "soft tier" ranking, which is a nonsense metric). Maybe I missed it on the site, but it doesn't look like you can put in your LSAT/GPA range and get a breakdown of chances like you can on MyLSN. So it's definitely less user-friendly in that regard.

In my case, LSD was more accurate than LSN, in part because LSN included data from 3 or 4 cycles ago when medians were lower.

My cycle has gone exactly the way LSD would show, save for BU and NDLS as outliers (instead of getting accepted with money, I got waitlisted at both).
