You'll have the same edition the teacher is using? Not having the same edition as the teacher can be real fun as I learned at university when the new editions featured different page numbers and problems so I ended up borrowing classmates' books to work from after purchasing some used editions from the university bookstore. One of the new editions was much simpler since the new version was the old version with a 9 page errata section added after the appendices. Hmmm... I think that was my first step into the dark realm of copyright infringement courtesy of Xerox.
