how hard is the LSAT?

81/101 converts to 164, correct?

Each test has its own raw score -> final score conversion chart. 82/101 might be a 164 on one test but a 161 on another. You need to get a book of old real LSATs, and look at the various scoring charts. I believe they put each test's score conversion chart at the end of the test.

My advice, FWIW, is to buy every available *REAL* LSAT (avoid wasting your time with Princeton Review's or Kaplan's or whomever's own simulated LSATs), and take them under real conditions. One of the biggest factors in the LSAT is endurance. Get your stamina up.

If you're going to take a review course, take Testmasters. Their method is superior to PR's and Kaplan's, and all of their instructors scored in the 98th or 99th percentile.
