Lawyer says I have a reasonable prospect of success

Advice needed

I’m applying to LOCATION: Australia from Canada for a student visa. I have slight complications with my file. During my consultation, the lawyer said he thinks I can get the visa but then started repeating that “it’s more likely than not” that I will obtain the visa. After the consultation, he advised by email that I have “reasonable prospects of success”. I feel slightly discouraged and don’t know if this entails a mere 51 percent chance of success or if I have a good chance of getting the visa. I would appreciate insights into this matter. Thanks!
