Howe big a deal are these typos?

Hey, I reread my applications and I noticed typos on two of them.
On one I had a random letter "a" under a question that was not applicable to me. The space should have been simply left blank.
I'm currently under review at this school. Is this worth contacting them for? Will it take my application out of committee thus delaying my decision. If it helps I'm a strong applicant at this school but not auto admit.
At the second school I'm more worried. Under employment data I wrote something that looked like this:
Dates employed
08/08/07 and i didn't include an end date
09/09/07 to and then I wrote nothing after the to
06/06/06 and again I didn't include an end date
I sent them an email notifying them of the error and I wrote a lengthy and thoughtful LOCI in a separate letter.
If it helps I'm just below the median gpa but well above the 75th percentile LSAT.
To what extent will these typos effect my likelihood of admissions? These are both T-14 schools. I feel really stupid since I've been rejected at my first choice, probably the same will happen for my second and these are my third and fourth choice schools.
