Took LSAT for fun long before considering law school, now... Forum

I am gearing up to apply to Fordham Law for admission into Fall 2013. In 2010, I took the LSAT literally just for fun (I know, I know...) and law school wasn't even on my horizon. I had just finished my master's in an entirely different field and had a semester off before beginning a post master's advanced certification. I did zero preparation, rolled out of bed and showed up without having any idea what to expect. I skipped around on the test and didn't focus much because as I said, it was really just for fun. I got a 153, and am concerned because I never would've imagined a poor LSAT score somewhere in life would have an impact on me but now I actually DO want to go to law school. I am very confident that I can achieve a 170 when I take the test for real, but am curious to hear opinions on how much this low score from a couple of years ago might haunt me. Any thoughts?

It won't. Nearly all schools just look at the highest score.
