Retake in December: Question on Applying

So, I have posted a thread before about how I scored well below my average on the October LSAT. I was PT'ing between 162-167 and ended up with a 159 on the test. I have already signed up for the December tests and have decided to spend the majority of my time mastering logic games. I usually score -3 to -5 but ended up with -8 on the test. However, my main issue was that I was so nervous about that section that I think it threw me off for the rest of the test.

I am planning on applying to a few schools where I would need a 165+ (George Mason, Washington and Lee, Williiam and Mary), a few where I am 50/50 with my current score and GPA (3.25), (Rutgers Camden and Newark, Temple) and a few safety schools which I haven't determined yet. I believe that I can have everything done within the next 3 weeks other th an the December LSAT. Should I submit my application as soon as it is done or should I wait for the December LSAT score?

Submit as soon as you are done. Notify on the app you are taking the december exam, they'll hold your app until the december exam is in.

Thanks! Wanted to make sure I wouldn't be ruling myself out of my "reach" options if I applied early.
