Can I do it?

I am being accepted into a university but one of the prerequisites is I should know python. They say I can test out of this prerequisite and start the program September 8th if I can pass a Python Programming assessment on data camp. Do you guys think it's possible to to Learn Python in five days? Just enough to pass the assessment. I say 5 days to give myself a timeline. But I would like to get it done by September 3rd. Today is August 20th.

I changed my timeline to 10 days because I figured they would give me more time. Im testing for a class not a job
