Aren't there community colleges in California in your area? I'd look there first, my CC recently raised their tuition cost this year and it's still only $92 an hour. A chemistry course with lab fee is right at $500. Apply for FAFSA, you may eligible for grant money, scholarships or other financial aid.
I understand where you're coming from. I took a college algebra test and I got a 48. My downfall was that I studied the study guide and there were only 3 or 4 questions from the guide on there. The majority of questions were very similar to the Math 120 final at my local community college. I'd advise anybody taking a CLEP to find the commensurate final at your college or university. This will surely prepare you for success, I have no doubt I'd passed my college algebra CLEP would I have studied the school's final more thoroughly, you can determine the final you will need by the type of course that is equivalently rewarded for passing the CLEP. My CC for some reason gives General College Chemistry credit for passing this CLEP. My college is an aberration, UMKC another university in my area, awards no credit for this exam.

I gave chemsitry clep after studying for 1 month got only 47 now I can't give it again for 6 months.
Any advice on what other option do I have. I couldn't find any chem course I could take here in California. Univ of Phonex is about $1500 way too much than I can afford. Do you guys now of any course I can take which is not this expensive.
Thanks
