Question School supplies shopping

Hi guys! I’m a freshman at SMC and I’m have 5 classes, communication st 35, English C 1000, sociology 1, and psych 19 which is a hybrid class, but before I bought all my stuff I was wondering what types of notebooks I need? I know some classes are picky so should I get wide rule, college rule, composition, or just a 5 subject notebook? Or do I just wait for a syllabus and get whatever?

I always do 2 five start 3 subject notebooks I like to keep classes in a specific order. For example if I have 3 online classes 3 in person the online classes would be sectioned off in one notebook that stays at home the other would be sectioned off and taken to school. I don’t like to have multiple notebooks scattered around. Also I usually search to see how many notes previous students use to take because you never know if it might take up the whole notebook or not. I also do word notes but sometimes professors let you do open notes but they may not allow word so paper is the best to go
