Letter of Recommendations

I think I'm stressing myself out too much about this tbh but need some opinions.

I started working at a law office mid june and its great experience but STRESSFUL. I'm planning on applying in late oct which would give me roughly 4 months with the office.... which is fine on a resume as a recent grad but.... would it be great on a recommendation? moreover would it look BAD to not have a recommendation? would it be something to write in the addendum... on I didn't ask because I'd only been there four months?

I'm also planning on getting a LOR from the head of my program and a research advisor - but I think im stressing out too much about having my boss write me one. I know I could get three strong letters of recommendations from professors/research advisors/various university people...

Let me know if you have an opinion please!!

Just finished my exam... it went horrible with protcou issues, I really want to cancel my score because it was so bad. Ughhh, I'm glad I'm not the only one. I wish I could get a refund for this. It was not worth it, I started at 10:40 am and just now finished... I may be hangry lol ughhhhh

Me too. It was horrible. It took me over an hour to get started and just to be sitting there. Proctor had no idea what was going on.

Personal Statement?

I'm having a bit of trouble with my personal statements. Any feedback would be appreciated and I'm sure that others are probably in the same boat. I basically have 3 different avenues I could go

childhood trouble as a child of divorce - looking at my mom's attorney and knowing i want to be a lawyer for capacity to help people

a) potentials issues - I was going to relate it to how i projected on a fictional character but in reality the hero of the story is the lawyer..... is it too juvenile?

working at a law office and how everyone says they 'cant do' that type of work - but i think the toughest things are motivated by love of those that want to see them out of prison

a) potential issues - only been working there a few months and theyll see that on my resume

b) confidentiality issues - obviously I wont be giving away any personal information but i dont want it to seem like I see clients as inspirational stories rather then actual people, you know?

I was in a bad car accident and have been very angry at the person who broke the law and hit me. this conflicts with what i am interested in as an attorney but working in a law office has given the opportunity for me to see the forgiveness in it?

Let me know if you have any ideas and also if you have them id be happy to give my two sense. thanks so much :)
