After the interview at Marshall Wace

Hello,

I'm an American looking for work in London (and living here). This is my third post on the subject. I'm looking for advice on a phone interview I had with Marshall Wace for tech grad scheme. I passed but had to take a coding assessment, which I don't know. I asked to change to the generalist grad scheme, cause coding isn't a requirement for that one. They said yes once the applications open. It isn't exactly clear though where I stand. I just got an email mentioning my candidacy is still under review for the tech grad scheme. I'm just slightly confused where I stand and I want to stay on their minds. Should I reply by mentioning that I've already been in contact with them and was told I'm being considered for the generalist scheme? Should I just ignore the email or?

Sorry, probably not a big deal where I'm at, just feel like looking for some advice right now!

Thanks!

Gavin
