Thanks a lot! Also any suggestions for backups would be greatly appreciated as well!

Follow PithyPike's guide and study your ass off for the LSAT. Improve on that diagnostic and actually get a score and then we can help you figure out where and how to apply. Until you have a real score, it's best to focus on getting the best score you can.

If you have a 167 diagnostic, and 8+ months to study, I would hold off on worrying about where to ED. With a 3.76, if you can get that LSAT up just a couple points, you wont need to worry about ED'ing. If you can clear 175, which with 8+ months, and a 167 start point, you are probably sitting pretty. HYS don't offer ED options anyway. Spend your time building your softs up, that will give you a better boost than an ED anyway.
