various internships including: academia, non-profits, lab, consulting firm
significant amount of community service
I worked full-time during 2/4 years of college while also interning, etc.--only worth mentioning on here because I plan to attend a part-time program (though I worked at a bar for those two years, so I definitely wouldn't delve into it as a part of my application

Full-time work since graduation in May 2012, first in financial services and now in media.
Background Info:
I decided to take a year to make sure that this is a worth-while investment for me, and to save up. I've reached a few conclusions:
1) Yes, I definitely, 100% want to pursue law, but I apparently have a phobia of debt.
2) No, I don't feel comfortable leaving my current 45k/year job AND taking on an annual debt comparable to my current salary. This means I am also not willing to leave NY/NJ
3) I'm not necessarily interested in BigLaw--so this impacted my school-choice/debt-threshhold.
4) I am definitely applying this cycle.
My game-plan is now to go to a part-time law school in NY/NJ. Retaking the LSAT is a viable option. My 158 was without much studying at all (which in retrospect was subconscious self-sabotage because I wasn't ready to go yet), so retaking is not out of the question, and neither is a significant score-increase-- but it would be December, so pretty late in the cycle .
With this in mind, there are a few parts to my question
(sorry if not all of them adhere to "what are my chances):
1) What are my chances at (part-time) Brooklyn, Fordham, Rutgers?
2) Am I overlooking any worthwhile part-time programs in the area? (Not really interested in Cardozo)
3) Should I apply ED Brooklyn?
Should I EA Fordham?
Should I regularly apply to all?
Or--should I apply to Brooklyn regular decision early in the cycle, retake the LSAT in Dec, and then apply to Fordham?
Any other viable scenarios I'm missing?
4) Can one of my recommendations be an employer? Or is my academic career too recent?
5) Given the fact that I'm only looking into part-time programs in the area, is retaking the LSAT worth it?
6) Any chance at any scholarship $$?
7) Is any of my reasoning just plain stupid?
Thanks in advance!
