Most law schools receive your new LSAT score automatically and directly through the LSAC CAS. You could apply with the 167, plan on taking the Nov. and if the score improves dramatically, even send a follow up to highlight the changes.

In case your worried they will reject your application quickly* based on the 167, another option would be to apply, inform the schools directly through email and request that they hold your application until the new scores come through That said, if what you're worried is getting a rejection, you could hold off.

Its probably wise to apply so they have your materials in their systems early, that way once they have your new scores it'll just get processed quicker in theory.

Maybe tough to actually do this, but if you can get on the phone with admissions and let them know your situation, they might have straight forward advise to give you or provide a solution.

Hope this helps! Good luck on the Nov. exam! And not for nothing, congratulations on 167, Im sure it wasn't as good as you had hoped, but it's still really good nonetheless. In terms of bench-pressing for guys in the US, that would be like being able to 1 rep more than 270lbs, if you were weighing 180lbs. Or running a 5k in under 20 minutes at 25 years of age.
