    Anyone know of any good free books on UML modelling?

    On 'Rational Rose' in particular?

    Exam on wednesday and I have never even looked at the stuff.

    Cramming is my friend.

    Its very practical stuff man.. hard to cram it in the night before
    The book I got is by bennett and mcgraw and even our SE lecturer
    said that its the best of a bad bunch.. the majority of them are just
    filled with back to back pages of text and more text.. very few exercises
    and hands-on work.. I heard good UML books are hard to find.. however
    if anyone can recommend a decent one id appreciate it..My best advice
    would be to go to:
    http://www.comp.dit.ie/rlawlor/Soft_Eng/se_notes.html
    and
    http://www.comp.dit.ie/ft228/2/se/
    and do some of the lab work.. hope this helps

    Steer well clear of 'Using UML' by Stevens and Poodey.

    It is a horrible affair from start to finish

    Using the notes on UML Distilled in the link Repli posted and also our own notes from our lecturer.

    Thanks for your help, I reckon I can do well enough tomorrow.
