Internship at a hedge fund

In short, I emailed hedge funds with my cv, cover letter and some answers to general interview questions. I received a response from a fund that I know only tends to take on interns if you have a contact in the industry - which I do not - however they only seem to respond when I ask if they'd like any more details. For example, I received an email asking when I'd hope for a possible internship to take place, I replied and they did not respond until I emailed again (roughly 3 weeks later) to which they responded very quickly asking for my grades. This has been since September.

Does anyone have any advice on how I should move forward with this fund? I do not want to appear rude but also think I need to push them to get the ball rolling faster.

 

Your manners are atrocious. If you must know I wrote this post on my phone and didn't bother to check my grammar as I was in a rush and this is an online forum not a job application.

I have two other offers from businesses and I am currently going through an application process with many others but I am persevering with this fund as it is my favoured option.

I wrote some answers to general interview questions.

Then I apologise but if you are not willing to respond to my question then there is no need to continue this conversation. I do realise that this isn't YahooAnswers and I usually check my grammar and make sure to word things better, you do not know why I did not take the time to in this instance so there's no need to be rude.
