Is Jan or even Feb lsat too late?

Hi powerscore,
i really need your help on this one! I took my nov lsat and am extremely disappointed with the result- 144. i am 2 years out of undergrad and my UGPA was a 3.48 (will write an addendum for this as I experienced health issues my final year of college that led to doing poorly). I have completed the other aspects of my application, my personal statement, optional essays, and LORs are all ready to go. The schools I am applying to are Suffolk, UNH, Umaine, Northeastern, New England, and a few other in the east coast area.
My top choice, however, is Northeastern law. Their RD deadline is MArch 1st, and i really am aiming for a high 150s low 160s for January lsat, or even Feb lsat. Is that too late in the application cycle and would it be detrimental to my application? Any advice is appreciated.

Nope, it's not too late and getting a higher score is worth far more in the app process than submitting early. In your shoes I'd take one of those two and focus on getting the best score possible--that's what will get you in

Thanks!
