Hello,

So here are the details. On 1/1/15 between 12am and 2am I consumed 1.5 12oz beers. Will I pass a EtG test 34 hours later?

I am 130 pound 27 year old male.

What is the percentage chance that you think I will pass or fail?

Percentage says fail. May be lucky-what's to lose?

These tests are that sensitive. 1.5 beers is nothing?

Also I rarely drink..

Depends on the limits they use. In some cases "1.5 beers is nothing?" will give a positive test. That's the risk you take by random testing and still drinking when I assume you are not supposed to.

Its like worrying about getting a girl pregnant after having sex with her. You just have to wait and see, but worrying will change nothing will it? You weren't worried before you drank so why worry now?

Let me ask you if you signed an agreement not to drink, or if you work a job that you must meet a certain level to pass? Its never a matter of the tests being sensitive or not, they are what they are, it's a matter of what is the acceptable detection level to pass.

Even a professional tester cannot tell you if you will pass or not because size, and weight are but two factors to consider, so you have a lot of homework to do. Then you will better know what's required to measure up and pass without worrying if you will or not.

I will be very straight with you my friend, I WANT you to sweat bullets until you get your results back, so going forward you remember the worrying and the stress, and vow to be better prepared in the future.

Anything less would be a grave disservice to you, and the go ahead to continue to take chances until you screw up and get caught. Also be aware that random tests are almost guaranteed after a holiday, long weekend, or coming back from a vacation. It's a natural set up because most people fall for it all the time.

Is this your first test or something? What are the terms of compliance, and minimum passing levels? If you cannot answer the basics go find a psychic!

The test is sent to RedWood Toxicology Labs and the cut off for the initial test is 500ng then if its positive with that they do further tests.. And I drank 1.5 beers solely to socialize. I obviously was not trying to get drunk. I never drink. And the problem was, that my thinking is distorted. I do not think normally, or as I should, and I am working on that, but its not easy. That being said, at the time, I did not think it was wrong.
