Retake might not be the possible choice. I want to know if the scholarship is same, which school is better. I am not going to practice IP law. I am interested in Business Law .

Everyone is going to tell you to retake, and they aren't wrong.
I know what you said, the best choice is to retake. But if the choice limits to these two school, where will you go?

Where do you want to work? What do you want to do? Business law sounds like BigLaw, right?
DC and Chicago are both Ok. I want to work for law firm, Yes. Maybe the litigation about the trade.
