Law schools will see your entire undergraduate GPA, from both schools. The good news is that many schools claim to notice improvement. That is, if you get a 4.0 during your next two years, your 3.55 avg GPA will look "better" than someone who got a 3.55 every year.

As for GPA weighing, engineering students generally get a bump but I haven't heard of a bump for business. I wouldn't count on one.

If you hope to go to law school right after you graduate I highly recommend taking the June 2008 LSAT. If you're happy with your results you can apply to schools as early as September. If you aren't happy you can always retake in September and still get your applications in fairly early. In law school admissions, there is a significant advantage to applying early in the admissions cycle (sept-oct).

Finally, I recommend you take a look at www.lawschooldiscussion.org. There's lots of good advice to be had there.

the ONLY problem I forsee with taking the June LSAT, is because my school is on [censored] quarter system. I don't finish school until the first week of June.

plus, like said, I want my GPA to be as high as is possibly can, I don't know if 2 1/2 quarters is enough to bring is up significantly even if I do get a 4.0 each quarter, and I don't want studying for the LSAT to get into the way of actual school and vice versa.
