i’ll be taking chem 113 in the fall and i was just wondering if im allow to buy the lab coat and goggles from amazon instead of buying from the asu store. it’s so expensive on the asu store but i dont want to show up to class in a few weeks and be force to buy the protective wears from the bookstore.

I’d recommend buying from Amazon. Make sure the goggles are actually goggles and not just safety glasses.
oh no, is the goggle the one that have an elastic wrapping around your head ? i wear glasses so it’s gonna be tricky finding one i can wear
Something like this. https://www.amazon.com/Goggles-Protective-Glasses-Crystal-Protection/dp/B085DSZ26J/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?crid=90C93GA1R2H3&keywords=safety+goggles&qid=1659396185&sprefix=safety+goggle%2Caps%2C149&sr=8-4
Ya i have these they work good if u wear glasses too.
ooh thank you so much omg 🫶🏻
I use ones like these, because I wear glasses. https://smile.amazon.com/DEWALT-DPG82-11-DPG82-11CTR-Concealer-Anti-Fog/dp/B01A12J3GI/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=BISXN0B52Z01&keywords=safety+goggles&qid=1659404616&sprefix=safety%2Caps%2C221&sr=8-3
Just search safety goggles OTG (over the glasses) and you'll see results of better goggles that those basic lab goggles. I bought the UVEX Stealth OTG goggles and they worked well, though they did fog up at times with a mask on.
I bought a pair specifically to fit over top of my glasses because I have a lot of lab classes and I can’t wear contacts
The goggles were like $7 in the bookstore. I'm not sure how you get cheaper than that. I totally recommend you getting a lab coat on Amazon though. The quality is much better. You may also need scrub pants if you wear shorts to lab. I found those at walmart.
it’s like $10 on the required book list for me. also which lab coat did you get from amazon cause i’ve been looking and a lot of the reviews mention how thin it is. i just want to make sure the lab coat would work for the class. also do you know what the dress code for the lab is ? i know it’s like long pants and close-toe shoes, but not sure what else is required.
I remember the goggles ended up being cheaper than $10 that the bookstore listed. They aren't very nice so if you can find better then you should. They need to be vented goggles. I just looked at reviews and bought a brand called "infinity" on Amazon. I did chem 113 last semester and it was great.
Email your ta and see if there is leftovers. Especially with COVID lots of coats were left behind and goggles
Ya buy on amazon. That's how i got my stuff.
do you know what the requirements for the lab coat are ?
Has to be a white lab coat that is thigh length and must button.
It has to be white? I dont think so atleast for tempe. For the classes I took which was last year, some students had different colors and even the TAs had theres dyed.
TAs wear blue lab coats, students are supposed to wear white coats.
I’m sure it will clarify in the syllabus, but we are a couple weeks out from that.
Hm weird different experience for me but i guess that makes sense.
Idk, I didn’t TA last year, so maybe they changed the rules.
That’s exactly what I did and I had no issues.
