Are Royal Marines struggling to recruit for the commando job role?

I can see a fast track option on the website. Is it a struggling to recruit issue or just not hitting recruitment targets or both?

First seizure when I was 14. Diagnosed after second at age 16. Chances of outgrowing the condition?

Been on medication since the second seizure and only have them if don’t take medication for 2-3 days.

I’m 28 so my brain has pretty much fully matured by now. An MRI scan taken after the second one showed no signs of abnormality. Two ECGs were within normal limits and showed no signs of epileptic activity. I’ve had 6 seizures in total. Is it still possible to outgrow this condition?

Deferring a module - student finance loan

England

I am a second year law student looking to resit a module. Can anyone advise on what happens when you request to defer a module? Mine is paid by student finance. Will student finance cover a module resit? Will OU issue a refund? Will the new module roll over assignment results or would I start afresh?

LLB - is it mandatory to do SQE modules to become a solicitor?

In my second year. Still deciding whether to go down the solicitor or barrister route. I’m likely to go down the solicitor route but after the degree I may go down the barrister route. Obviously to be a barrister you need to have studied the seven foundations of legal knowledge hence why I’m in two minds.

Anyone know why there’s so little lawyers from black/Asian backgrounds?

The Bar Council released stats show that basically 90% of barristers are white despite e.g London being one of the most diverse cities in the world. Obviously if you‘re competent skin colour shouldn’t matter but I’m surprised the number of Asians/blacks isn’t higher e.g 20% at least. Is there a racial bias or just a lot less of them apply?
