probably. 175ish. http://harvard.lawschoolnumbers.com/stats

Edit: I just looked at HY. For C, someone got in with a 159. For S, someone got in with a 164.

No, no, no.

There are only a handful of AA applicants with scores in the +175 range. I'd apply with anything over 160, although there probably won't be strong consideration of your application unless you get close to knocking on 170.

+1
Definitely apply with anything over 160, just don't put your hopes up unless you are in the 166-170+ range. The the lower the score, the better the softs have to be, of course.
