No. The placement process through ACT scores and a short test are imprecise at best. If you have taken a course like MTH 012 (or MTH 011, or MTH 141, or equivalent courses at other colleges), then this will be a much more accurate gauge of what you know and whether you are ready for subsequent coures, such as MTH 121 (or MTH 141, or MTE 210, or …). We do not permit students to take the Placement Exam in such circumstances. You need to repeat MTH 012 and receive a 2.0 or better.
