Odds at the T13 aren't great. Looks like the T20 are more in line with your numbers.
But there's no reason why you should be content to apply with your current LSAT. You're a "reverse splitter," someone with a high GPA but low LSAT. You can and should retake for a higher LSAT. Look at the sea change if you can get your LSAT up to 169 (only 5 points more, eminently achievable!):
Notably, this isn't only a huge change in your odds of admission - it's also a huge change in your odds of getting substantial $ at the T13.
This is a clear case for retaking and applying next cycle.
