And today, I completed an application for a university ($99 per credit hour) for their College Algebra course just in case I cannot pass the CLEP. It sounds like ALEKS would be the best way to go for me.
Here's another inexpensive option - Clovis Community College. The summer schedule is not posted yet, but the class was offered last summer.
Cost for THE COURSE is $175:
Tuition
Mary Caffey is the instructor for the course - extremely competent online instuctor. You use Plato Learning's College Algebra text. Midterm and Final are proctored exams; no notes permitted for exams. You need to allow 3 hours for each exam. If you plan to take the course at Clovis, you MUST take the Accuplacer unless you can show you have completed Intermediate Algebra at another institution.
Customer service is 1st rate - I've had 2 homeschooled kids take classes there, and would recommend them to anyone!
My daughter took Intermediate and College Algebra, along with Trigonometry through Clovis, then did the Calculus CLEP so she had a good base to build upon.
