UGH - I feel you on the LSAT disappointment. Same thing happened to me on my retake last year.
Outside shot at Cornell (I was accepted from the Reserve List last cycle with a 3.45/168, although many with numbers around mine were not as lucky). Cornell mostly places in NYC, although I'm apt to believe that's self-selection more than anything else.
I did not apply to Emory, but last cycle I was accepted to WUSTL with a $10k scholarship, and opted to withdraw from waitlists at USC and Vandy.
FWIW, I was also waitlisted at Columbia, Michigan, Northwestern, and Georgetown's PT program - they might be worth an application as well.
Good luck!
Edit to say: I would fully expect you to receive money from any school ranked in the T20-T30 range. Those are regional schools (so apply where you think you will want to work), but solid. Unless you're chasing a full scholarship, I would limit your applications to T30 schools in your region of choice, with a handful of reaches from the T10-T20 range.
x 1000. My last several PTs were all 175-180, and I got 169.
