CGPA 4.11, LSAT 160 Plan for HYS?

Hi, I completed my degree in Canada and my UGPA is 4.11. My current LSAT is 160, which is very weak.
I aim to only apply to HYS this cycle or the next cycle, otherwise, I will stay in Canada. I will retake the LSAT next January.
What is your suggestion if I want to get into HYS? Harvard might be the easiest one of the three, but I do need to improve my LSAT score.
Any suggestions on what I should do? Should I apply to this cycle or the next cycle? What LSAT score do I at least need to reach given my UGPA?
Thank you all for your advice!

Outside chance if you're an URM, otherwise no, that LSAT probably takes you out of the running. 170 or so is where you'll start to have a real shot.

Why do you want to go to law school? It's hard to think of a career where any of H, Y or S would be preferable to UToronto but, say, UChicago wouldn't be.

Agreed with LSATBender. U Chi doesn't have too many things it can't do that H can... However, you are unlikely to get into any T14 with your current numbers unless you are a URM or Olympian. I'd stick with your Canadian options, U of T is a fine school. Best of luck.
