Withdraw after negotiating?

Is it considered unprofessional or rude to withdraw after negotiating for scholarships?

My LSAT was very low (152) and GPA is average (3.45), but i still managed to get into Lewis and Clark(no money), Seattle U (10k/year) probably due to my personal story and diversity(immigrant and etc).

The reason why my LSAT was low was that i studied for it while working full time and taking full time classes. Now if i took a year off and retook it, i'm thinking i would receive better scholarships. Also, my overall GPA will slightly increase, as im on track to get a 4.0 this final semester.

But would the schools i already started negotiating with, look at me as an 'unserious' candidate next year?

No, it's perfectly normal.

Plus, after a successful re-take you probably won't be thinking about these schools anyway.
