What's the name of the scale/mode that consists of the notes C,C#,E,F,G,G#, and A#?
Sorry if I'm not using the right terminology. (I am self taught and mostly just fiddle around in a DAW).
I happened upon this scale / mode but I don't know what it's called.
C,C#,E,F,G,G#,A#

In Klezmer music, this scale is known as "freygish" or more formally as "Ahava Raba." If you were to start on Bb and play the same notes, it has the name "Misheberakh" or "Ukrainian Dorian." Both of these scales are modes of the European harmonic minor.
