I just graduated in December and I was looking at the February 2015 LSAT but I feel like that won't be enough time to study so I am considering taking it in June instead because my gpa isn't that good so I am hoping that I get an amazing score on the LSAT

I would not like to screw myself over as I would like to attend law school this fall but I want to attend a good law school.What should i do?

Also in the event I can't attend law school this fall what should I do meanwhile? gain some experience?

take a year off. You aren't screwing yourself over by not going this fall. In fact, get a job and you're helping yourself.

A February score is too late to apply with anyways.
Take it in June, then retake in October if need-be and apply next cycle.
Start studying now.

Not at all. Many people go to law school in their 30's and go on to be quite successful.

I sat out a year at a similar age, and I'm glad I did.
