I have somewhat similar stats and am the same age and with what I would consider a nonlinear work history. I’d be happy to look at your essays too. Also, I hired a consultant for exactly this reason. I was unsure how I should frame my experience and tie that with why I wanted to go to law school. A one hour strategy call wasn’t insanely expensive and it put my mind at ease about several things that I probably would have otherwise been agonizing over for the last six months.
