The passing soce for the test is 69%
Here is IBMs recommandations on books, I found these to be suffient.
UML Distilled: A Brief Guide to the Standard Object Modeling Language, 2nd Edition
Author: Martin Fowler
Publisher: Addison-Wesley
ISBN: 020165783X
Applying UML and Patterns: An Introduction to Object-Oriented Analysis and Design
Author: Craig Larman
Publisher: Prentice Hall
ISBN: 0137488807
The link to IBM's site should give you more info.

If you search this Forum you will get answers to all of your questions and a lot more.
Good Luck
