I've got my alchemist up to 18 (15 alchemist/3 Master Chymist)
Some advice...
1. Don't splash another class unless its a master chymist or rogue. You will not see the benefits.
2. Important stats: Int, Dex, Chr, Wis, Str, Con.
Gauntlets of dex, headband of intelect, Cloak of resistance. Remember your Mutagen and put some discoveries into it.
3. Regarding formulae, You get a lot at first level with a high int, but only one each level there after. Don't forget that you can "borrow" wizard spell books and copy those. Focus on taking only alchemist formulae each level. Also you gain bonus extracts with a high int the same as a wizard.
4. Alchemical Allocation is your best friend. Extend potion is also key, Eternal potion is nasty and I cannot stress how important the feat improved brew potion is.
