Answer 3

For separate modules (x86 and x64), if you want a customized installation without downloading loads of crap, see Servers Microsoft® SQL Server® 2012 Express.

Answer 4

On the Official SQL Server 2012 ISO that's for download, just navigate to \x64\Setup\ (or \x86\Setup) and you will find "sql_ssms.msi". It's only about 60 MB, and since it's an .MSI you can probably provision it to be installed automatically (say for a large lab or classroom environment).

Answer 5

I downloaded it from here (named 'Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools'). In this version you will get a Visual Studio 2012 installation with the functionality to manage the SQL Server 2012 server.
