do most college book stores have lab coats and goggles?
My AP Biology teacher has required everyone to purchase a lab coat, goggles, and a lab book for his class. He told us which college to go to in order to find this book, however it was not clear whether or not they carried the other items i needed. I have searched their entire website and can not find pictures of their book store, i have even tried calling but they are closed right now. So my question is, for those of you who have been to a college bookstore, do you remember if they had either of these items? and if not, is there a place i can go to get them?
never mind. i actually just found my answer. first person to write anything gets the 10 points.
for anyone that may need the answer in the future, i went to my closest community college and they a lot of them there. all different colors and sizes
I’m in college right now, and I’ve never seen any lab coats or goggles in the bookstore. In fact, I’m about 95% sure that shelf space in college book stores is too valuable to place lab coats and goggles there. However, there are of course many ways you can get them instead.
Online is the obvious option.
Also, you might want to check with previous students who took AP Bio with your teacher. They can probably share with you where they got their equipment. You can always get great advice from older students for any class, high school or college.
Lastly, remember to keep your receipt! If you have to buy the equipment for a public school (maybe also private, but I’m unsure), you can probably get a tax exemption and get money back for it! That is, the government will reimburse you for the lab equipment.
