No name uni, meh softs. T6 is probably out. LSN has a small sample size for similar numbers. Where should I be applying mid-January?

Here's a myLSN output, tweaked to widen GPA parameters and include 159 also (AA only, all years):

It doesn't look good for the t14 overall, but here are some interesting "orange" outputs:
38% admission at Michigan, 47% at Cornell; 50% scholarship chances at both.
It also looks like 15-19 would be receptive to your application. Based only on this, I recommend applying broadly from Michigan down to WUSTL/USC and also applying to any other T50ish schools in the city/state/region where you intend to practice. The more applications you send, the better your chances of getting an option that makes sense for you. As for the mid-January qualifier, Northwestern will likely want to interview you in person because you're applying too late to interview online or with a local rep. Consider that when applying.
Also, most people on TLS will tell you (with good reason) to retake the LSAT. I'll beat them to it: retake the LSAT. A 5-point jump would work wonders:

With a 164-165, your chances at CCN are at least 50/50, and several t20 schools are likely to give you scholarships. If you can afford to take a year and apply next cycle, invest a few months in improving your score, and maybe make your softs less "meh," your application will be much stronger.

Friend with same stats (well, slightly lower, 3.3 gpa) AA male ED's CLS and got in. Granted this was the '17 cycle, but these things are not out of play. That being said, maybe retake.

I had these stats and got a 50% scholly to Cornell 8 years ago. Wow, can’t believe it’s been that long.
