Don't worry about character and fitness. Just be honest. You'd be surprised, certain lawyers practicing or teaching, and their backgrounds, it would blow your mind. This character and fitness nonsense is blown way way way out of proportion.

C&F is serious business, but your concerns are nothing to be concerned about.

Kind of a useful link I found some time ago when worrying about C&F issues:
--LinkRemoved--, look for articles titled "Litigation update"; there are a number of C&F cases that get litigated and have interesting published opinions. I have no idea of those would be of any help, but I found them soothing at least in that they provided a look into the workings of this fearsome beast we call C&F.

a. Visit the Board of Law Examiners website for your state via http://www.ncbex.org.
b. Request or download the bar exam application.
c. Allow at least 6-8 weeks to complete the application, which is similar to security clearance in detail and scope. You will need ample time to secure information, to be fully accurate and complete, as an incorrect application will lead to difficulties in the process and may cause character and fitness questions to arise.
d. Application fees vary for first-time applicants.
e. Some employers provide assistance with the fees. Many do not.
f. Select references carefully and provide sufficient time for reference submission.
g. Secure assistance from Records and/or University Registrar in a timely fashion.
h. Fingerprints, handwriting samples, and/or notarized documents may be necessary. Allow ample time.
