Why would a Pre-Med need to own a lab coat? Is one needed? If so, why?
Are you inclined to spill stuff all over yourself?
I've taken lots of chem, bio, biochem labs and only 1-2% of the students wear a lab coat.
They weren't particularly disposed to soiling their clothes, they were just blow-hards.
Don't want wear a labcoat. It's an ugly trait among undergrads that compels your labmates to spit in your petri dish.
The cardinal sin is wearing a labcoat with your name embroidered over your left breast pocket

I still don't understand why premeds would wear a white coat for shadowing, nor why an attending would request that one does.
I've never heard of an attending that would ask a premed to wear a white coat while they shadow

Not an attending, but a hospital administrator in this example.
If a hospital administrator told me I had the option of wearing a lab coat while I shadow I would choose to dress professionally and avoid taking on the appearance of a tool.

unless you're going to tell them how to deal with pee on their scrubs, don't tell them to do that.Lab coats are very warm. I would recommend wearing one all the time. Not because you're pre-med, but because they're just nice and warm.
Also, scrubs are very comfortable underneath a lab coat, and you want to be comfortable, so you should definitely think about investing in 6-7 sets.
Yup, scrubs and a lab coat. Warmth and comfort. Wear it every day.
i sometimes put on a lab coat and just walk around in the hospital, to experience what being a doctor is like
Really? Are you sure you wouldn't do it? Ever? Not even as a joke?I still don't understand why premeds would wear a white coat for shadowing, nor why an attending would request that one does.
Why yes! You MUST wear a lab coat to all of your lectures so others know that you are indeed pre-med. Watch as all of your friends bow down to your glory! Professors tremble with fear as well.
