DC or VA
But the bar exam is just cake to me, I work in the education field now and I need a PhD to continue to climb the ladder. My JD will be equal to a PhD, so I can just go back to working in education after school.
I really like the law so maybe I will get really into it, ya never know.

Damn, I wish I could relocate. My numbers are just a hair over yours. I'm just imagining ASL giving me full tuition ride, but instead I'll be going to a non-ABA school. But I shouldn't complain. It's here, it's cheap and middle-aged law students to be should take what they can get.
right? 
153 - 3.5
Appalachian School of Law - full tution
Ohio Northern -15k
FL Coastal - 10k
Univ. of DC -4.5K
Yeah being able to re-locate made all the differance - Appalachian is in the middle of nowhere, plus there were several middle aged student there as well (I am 32 myself)

I got one with an unsolicited application blank. No kidding.  It was not a highly placed school, however. 
Yeah I got one to, mine was from Barry University

I am in a similar boat. I received a scholarship offer from Ohio Northern 15k, Florida Coastal 10k, and Appalachian School of Law full tuition. I have a couple of schools that I am still waiting to hear from, like the Buffalo. They offered me a fee wavier if I applied so I am thinking that I should get in.
But when I look at costs, I am leaning more towards Appalachian. I just can’t fathom loading myself with an extra 60 grand in debt for a better school. Will it really make that much of a difference in 10 years where I went to school?
I am still deciding, I sent in the deposit for Appalachian and have withdrawn my apps at Florida and Ohio. But I don’t know what I am going to do, if a much better school like Buffalo comes along.

Yes actually I took the LSAT with my Dad to support him. I never thought that I would do ok, It was kinda a joke to me. No studing at all I just showed up. Ok my score kinda sucked 153, but my Dad made a 138, and he tried so hard.
I had to think about going to law school, I had never even thought about it. I searched long time and have decided to give it a go. I have a full scholarship to a 4th tier, so it is worth it.
But the guilt... every time I talk to my Dad about it... But he seems ok with it all, it is just me feeling bad. I think that he feels that if he couldn't do it, then at least I am going to try.

153/3.5
Yes I think my numbers are bad. Only because I wanted to get into a T2 school with money. Now the only money I am looking at comes from T4. It limited my choices. My fault really - I never studied for the LSAT, I just took it cold. That was a very, very unwise choice on my part. Also my GPA 3.5, had I realized it would count so much later, I would have maybe tried harder. My grad GPA is 4.0. I only say they are bad numbers for me, had I tried harder I could have done better.
