Can I use SQL Server Management Studio 2012 on a 2008 server? My school is using SQL Server 2008. Last time I used it I only installed (at home) SQL Server Management Studio 2008 part, and used VPN to connect to school's server.

Now I want to install SQL Server Management Studio again, but this time the 2012 version is available.

Will SQL Server Management Studio 2012 work on the school's SQL Server 2008? Or do I need the 2008 version?
SSMS2012 is backwards compatible:

As Kenneth mentioned, you could copy the 2008 BOL (Books online) so when you search the help it'll be relevant to 2008 instead of 2012.
