Someone please ease my anxiety about my current situation...
I just picked up my LOR from an OTR and of course I was antsy and held it up to the light because I wanted to be able to read it... All I got were a few sentences.. THe first paragraph starts out with my full name and saying how many hours i've completed etc etc. I skip down to the second paragraph and I see another volunteer's name! it said something like "Amber (this is NOT my name) has always been a great help" and it goes on and on. that's all I saw. I didn't see how many times she mentioned another voluntee'rs name, and I didn't see how many times she mentioned my name. The only thing I caught was that she said my name at the beginning at least.
DO you think the programs I'm applying to will frown upon that a lot? I'm having hope that they understand that people that write these LORs have to use templates since they write it for a lot of people so I'm hoping the admissions committee understands it and doesn't really mind too much. However, the other side of me is saying, well what if the admissions committee thing that "well if the OT only used a template for this girl, she must not mean all of the things she's saying in the letter about her"
Ahh, I'm freaking out. They can't penalize me for a mistake my OT made right?
Please help me feel better...
