What are my chances at the University of Denver - Strum?

I have a 3.1 GPA from the University of Colorado at Boulder (in Advertising - School of Journalism and Mass Communications).

150 LSAT score (which I feel like I would be able to slightly improve).

I am also 24 and have had 2 years working experience in business analytics for a Fortune 500 software company, which I feel may be a plus.

I would like to practice and continue living in Colorado and DU - University of Denver is my ideal school.

I would like to get your feedback on my chances and if I should re-take the LSAT in October?

Thanks! - Laura

Unfortunately, with your low GPA you're probably going to need a higher LSAT to get into Denver. Seems like under a 3.5 GPA and they're really looking for a 160+ LSAT. Sorry! :(

Thanks! I think I will take the October test to get a better shot. I know that if I focus more and spend the time I have from now-Oct I will be able to score higher. Any study suggestions?

Check out the LSAT prep forum on here, including the stickied stuff at the top of the forum, for good study schedules and advice. If you're having trouble on logic games get the PowerScore Logic Games Bible and work through it, a lot of people here swear by it. Same for the Logical Reasoning bible if you're having trouble with the arguments section.
