what are my chances?

I am scoring a 169 on my practice LSATs, but have a low low gpa 2.25 (my transcript is 3.2), due to test anxiety, that I overcame my junior year, when I take the June LSAT:
If I score a 169 with my 2.25, is there any chance of landing a Tier 1 (20-50) acceptance? I will be applying in the Fall, and will have one more semester left before I officially graduate, so when I apply halfway through my last year, another semester of 4.0 could bring the gpa up to a 2.5 which will help a tad. So is there anyway when I apply in the Fall, in the addendum could I allude to the increase in grades that could occur, and some of the schools Tier 1 could waitlist me?
Is 169 enough to offset the gpa? Do schools waitlist you if you havent officially graduated when you apply and then if you have say a semester of A's, that can maybe tip the scales?
