Uhura passes; the Orion cadet fails.

But yes, this is why I said I hope for another major female character in future installments. You can only do so much to right the gender issues when you've got seven or eight important characters to re-introduce. Now that's done, they can move around more.

They couldn't have made Rand an old grizzled Sergeant, though, and not just for structural reasons; the in-story explanation for the reboot means she's going to be the same age relative to the others as she was before. (They could have made it her mother, though. <g>)
