St. John's or Cardozo?

Hello everyone. I'm looking for a little help in deciding which law school (if I decide to go) would be a better investment in the long run.
St. John's offered a 20k scholarship with a GPA requirement - you need to be in the top 40% of the class to keep your whole scholarship. Outside the 40% you keep a certain percentage of the scholarship based on your class placement. It seems for 2014 they had better job statistics than Cardozo.
Cardozo offered $10k scholarship with no min GPA requirement. The consensus from attorneys I work with seems to be that Cardozo is the better school out of the two. I'm discouraged because I'll have to pay an extra $30k in the long run but it might be worth it for a better school.
I'm looking for some outside opinions regarding this situation. Any advice is appreciated! Thanks.
