Accessing data in leaderstats??

Hi i am trying to access data that is being stored in leaderstats by another script.

I have a script that writes Exp as a number value to the leaderstats and that is working ok.

I am then trying to access that number to obtain which rank to assign a play.

it seems to access the leaderstat data but with the value as 2 it should assign my rank as private but it is assigning me corporal for some reason.

It is most likely something simple but i am new to Lua and have pulled information from several scripts to write this.

Any ideas??

01local Players = game:GetService("Players")
02local ExpDataStore = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("Exp") 
03local RankGui = game:GetService("ServerStorage"):WaitForChild("RankGui")

05 
06local function onPlayerAdded(player)
07    local playerKey = "Player_" .. player.UserId
08    local leaderstats = player:WaitForChild('leaderstats')
09    leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
10 
11    local myExp
12    local success, err = pcall(function()
13        myExp = ExpDataStore:GetAsync(playerKey)
14    end)
15    if success then
16        print ("Experience Data Found")

18        --Private
19        if myExp >= 1 then -- Set the number to your group ID !

22            clonedgui.TextLabel.Text = "Private"
23            clonedgui.TextLabel.TextColor3 = Color3.fromRGB(36,154,136)
24            --clonedgui.Parent = character.Head
25            clonedgui.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name).Head -- Yes, you can also just say character.Head                       
26        end
27        --Lance Corporal
28        if myExp >= 50 then -- Set the number to your group ID !
