If you feel comfortable after looking at some of the old finals, I would just go on to 240 and get retroactive credit for 114 (which will happen if you get a C or higher in 240 without having to take any sort of placement exam). 114 is a useful class for people in the sciences, but the material is not presented in an overly insightful or interesting way. It is entirely from the textbook (which does happen to be a very helpful one), so it is very possible to learn everything by yourself which is what a lot of people do. However, if you are very interested in math and want to learn the theory behind it, you should look into Math 116, which is honors math. Math 116 and Math 260 are supposed to correspond to 114 and 240 but they are actually pretty different in that honors math is entirely proof based. A few of my friends took 116 and really enjoyed it.
