Yes! I'm kind of sick of every essay being "I saved my small town at age 12" or "I've always wanted to be a lawyer because I want to save the world." I also want to see a normal person essay.

I'm in the same boat as you! I'll be 29 next month and planning to take the LSAT in November so technically I'll be 30 when I actually start law school. I think they will appreciate the fact that you have work experience and are also motivated to pursue law school. It's not like you sat around for 4 years after undergrad. Wishing you all the best! :)
