Postal Exam 710 - Clerical Abilities Preparation (2026)
The USPS 710 is a proctored Clerical Abilities exam required for Clerk, Secretary, and Assistant positions at the U.S. Postal Service. It covers 140 questions across 7 sections in 57 minutes of timed testing, split into two segments - Clerical Abilities and Verbal Abilities. Candidates who pass the initial assessment may be invited to a separate keyboarding test.
JobTestPrep's PrepPack is the most complete preparation available for the Postal 710 - an interactive guide walking you through every section, 2 full timed simulations, 38 targeted prep tests, and a keyboarding simulation for when you advance past the initial assessment. Start with the guide, identify your weak spots, and track your improvement before exam day.
USPS Exams 712/713, 720, 725, and 730
- Exams 720, 725, and 730 are part of the same Clerical Battery as the 710 and cover identical content, so every practice test in this PrepPack applies directly to all three.
- Exams 712 and 713 test typing speed and accuracy. This PrepPack also includes a full timed typing simulator with live error feedback - exactly what those exams require.

USPS 710 Exam PrepPack FAQs
Yes. Exams 720, 725, and 730 are part of the same Clerical Battery as the 710 - they share identical content, the same 7 sections, and the same format. The difference between the four exam numbers is purely administrative: USPS assigns different codes depending on the specific clerical role you applied for. The same PrepPack fully prepares you regardless of which number appears on your invitation.
Start with the interactive guide, then take the first full simulation to identify your weak sections. Move to the relevant practice tests for focused work, then take the second simulation to measure your improvement. Save the keyboarding simulation for last, once you feel confident on the core assessment.
That depends on your starting point. Most candidates benefit from at least one to two weeks of focused preparation - enough time to complete the guide, work through weak sections, and take both simulations with a gap between them to track real improvement.
The 710 is a timed exam - each of the 7 sections has its own strict time limit, some as short as 2 minutes for 20 questions. A static PDF cannot replicate that pressure. Practicing with untimed material gives you a false sense of readiness. Our simulations are computer-administered and timed section by section, exactly as the real exam is administered - so when exam day arrives, the format and pressure are already familiar.
Yes - there is no limit on retakes. Your progress is saved so you can track improvement across attempts and focus on the sections that still need work.
The minimum passing score is 70. Our PrepPack is designed to get you comfortably above that threshold, not just over it.
After completing your payment, you will receive two emails: a payment receipt and a login link with your account details. Once you log in and reset your password, you will have instant, unlimited access to your PrepPack.
You can start practicing immediately with tailored questions and detailed explanations, tracking your performance along the way. Your progress is saved, allowing you to revisit previous attempts as many times as you like. If you need more time, you can extend your subscription by contacting c.serv@jobtestprep.com.

I qualified for the job I was pursuing. Found the prep to be more difficult than the actual test. I would use this again in the future if I decide to try for a higher pay grade.
