On paper, Lie and Nora shouldn't get along. I mean Nora makes Ruby look sluggish by comparison and Lie is very quiet and reserved. Also, when Glynda looked in on them, Lie had just killed two large snakes by himself, showing impressive skill while Nora doesn't really seem like a fighter (at least in my opinion). Based on this, Glynda was most likely thinking that Nora would hold him back, especially if she has a lack-luster transcript.

Also the cliff launch isn't really that stupid. Obviously those going to Beacon have been trained in combat. I mean every student at Signal Academy designs their own weapons and the teachers are trained in combat (like Qrow). Being launched from a cliff should be basic stuff as everyone managed to land safely (except Jaune).
