Postal 473 Practice Test (#2) – Form Completion

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Postal Exam 473 / 473-C

This exam is also known as the Battery 473 and replaced the Battery 470 in 2004. It is given to potential letter carriers and postal processing jobs. A score of 70 is required to pass, and applicants are considered for hire based on their scoring. Historically, point bonuses of 5-10 points were awarded to applicants based on military veteran / disabled veteran status. The Postal Exam Battery 473 and 473-C exams are actually the same test; it is designated as the 473 when given for various positions, and as the 473-C when given exclusively for the Carrier position. The exam is broken down into the following categories:

Part A: Address Checking You will be given 60 addresses to compare in 11 minutes. You will be expected to determine if the addresses are identical, if the zip codes are different, or if the street/city addresses are different.
