You can check lawschoolnumbers.com and the LSAC site for schools, but honestly, study and retake the LSAT.  The sort of schools you can get into with a 160 versus the ones possible with a mid-160s or 170 score are worth at least a year's wait.

Thanks a lot! I will consider retaking. But does reapplication affect my chances?

Definitely retake, your GPA is all good, and boosting our LSAT score to the mid-160s to mid-170s will make a HUGE difference.
And math and physics majors traditionally do best on the LSAT.

What did your studying look like for the LSAT you took?

Did you put a lot of time into it?

160 is a good score and with your high UGPA and the fact that you have a lot to offer a school in the diversity category, there aren't many schools that you wouldn't have a good shot at.

What are your goals for law school? Where do you want to go?  What do you want to do with the law degree?
