THE Best Postal Exam 473 Study Guide

If you want a job with the Postal Service as a Clerk, City Carrier, Mail Handler, etc. you have to take the 473 Exam. You MUST score high if you want a career in the Postal Service, and in order to score high you need this book. This study guide was the best investment I have ever made. Straightforward and to the point, very precise. This is THE one and only Postal Exam 473 study guide to purchase. Using this study guide, I achieved a very high score, and could not have done so without diligently using this guide by Mr. Parnell. The audio CD is just like the actual test. The most valuable part of this book is the section on Coding and Memory, the strategies presented for this section have to be the best you will find in any study guide on the market. This study guide will help you to achieve a top score if you use it diligently. In addition to using Mr.Parnell's study guide, I purchased his Speed Marking & Test Scoring Pencils, and they make all the difference in the world! When I took the test, other test takers spent unnecessary time coloring in the ovals on the answer sheet. With the special pencils I purchased, I filled in the ovals in half the time! Customer Service is also top notch, Mr. Parnell is very friendly and knowledgeable of this test and the Postal Service. If you want a career with the Postal Service, start by purchasing this study guide, use it diligently, and you will achieve the score you want!

Excellent Study Guide

I took the postal exam in late November and although I have not received my scores yet, I do not think I would have been prepared for the lengthy exam if it were not for this guide. The audio CDs were incredibly helpful for practicing and were a great aid in helping me establish a rhythm. I have a terrible concept of time but with this book's help, I was able to pace myself accordingly. UPDATE: I scored an 81.80. From what I understand, if you do not have any vet points, the highest scores are usually in the mid-80s.

Buy this book only if you are serious about getting a career.

I bought this book to help me prepare for a career with the postal service. At age 45, I need to concentrate on a career, not just a good job, one with benefits like health insurance and retirement. T.W. Parnell's book is the closest thing to the real test as you can get without having the postal service give you copy of the test in advance. The book is laid out exactly, and I mean exactly like the real test. The test will be given to you just like you see in the book. By using the precisley timed audio CD's, you can practice over and over by using the answer sheets provided, until you not only get it right, but until you get it right and increase your speed so you can use the time to either check your answers, or utilize the test taking strategies to get a leg up on the competition. Speaking of the "competition," I witnessed many unprepared people who were blown away at taking this test, and some people were so intimidated by the postal exam they walked out in frustration. By using the test-taking strategies and memorization techniques in this book, I had all the confidence in the world and my test score proves it!

No worries with this manual!

This book was an exact representation of what to expect on the 473/C postal exam. Not only did the CDs help me keep my timing up, I finished every section on the real test with enough time left to double check my answers! Half the people taking the exam with me did not even finish half the test sections! I highly recommend this product to anyone looking to ace the exam.

I've searched and scoured online for a book to aptly prepare me for my postal exam and further my chances towards becoming an employee with the United States Postal Service.. and my searches have yielded me one such book. This book I paid $29.99 for and would gladly pay that again in a heartbeat! I studied the pages preceding the "practice exams" every night for a month prior to my test date, then once I received notice of my test date, I began taking the tests. I received high scores never lower than 95% every practice exam I took.. and going into the test I felt more confident about any test I'd ever taken in my life. I received my results about a week ago.. and sure enough I had aced the test. This book for the most part gets you psyched and ready for the test mentally.. but it also gives you the physical endurance as well as tips and tricks that help you to break down this would-be "doozy" of a test. Honestly... buy this book and you won't be disappointed.. I know I sure wasn't! Email me if you need any further assurance/proof!
