No coding knowledge entering S&T - issue?

I am a bread and butter t20 finance undergrad and incoming intern at a MM in S&T in NYC- unplaced so far. Reading the downsizing criticisms of S&T and Skynet conspiracy theorists on this site and elsewhere, I have a growing concern that my complete lack of coding knowledge will substantially limit my performance on whichever desk this summer.

Is this real? Or will this just fence me into the sales side of things?

if you are on a rates desk, good chance they will run regressions. Might want to consider a stats class if that interests you? helps to know that you have to actually check if your series is stationary before you can fit a basic ols model
