Get the book when you are sure you won’t drop the class. Sometimes there are certain classes that use the same book every year because they are good books (physics 110a always uses Griffiths Electrodynamics), and in that case feel free to get it earlier. Just don’t get them too early because there’s a chance they could publish a new edition by the time you take the class.
