I am a 5'3, 110lb female who drank 2 1/2 12 oz beers on Wednesday night. The first drink was at 9:30pm and last drink was finished by 11:00pm. I had an ETG test at 1:30pm Friday. What are my chances of passing?

Very slim, you need to hope the test, which has a poor reliability rate, fails to catch your use of alcohol. They claim an 80 hour window but EtG has a failr high failure rate so keep your fingers crossed

I think they will detect your recent usage of alcohol, but what they do about it is up to who gives the test, and what they decide to do about it.

Here's a statistic to consider, 90% of the people who come here are on probation, or have employment mandatory testing done. The ones on probation have court ordered tests, often RANDOM, because they got caught by the LAW, and trying to stay out of jail. What makes all your research, and studies debate inappropriate, is it IGNORES the real life circumstance of the people involved.

Now you may cheer, and pat a guy on the back, and encourage him when he worries about passing a drug/alcohol test, but I will not because because PREPARATION for the test often is about changing the behavior that got you in trouble in the first place.

I guess you totally ignore the important FACT, they worry after they have done the dirty deed, and not before. So according to YOU mattistic, keep doing what you are doing and things will be fine. No they won't, in the real world, they will eventually get caught AGAIN, and keep suffering because of their behavior that gets them in trouble and KEEPS them in trouble.

Having been there, done that on both sides of the table, I totally reject your whole premise about what a suffering person needs, and its obvious you don't know, and haven't got a clue! That makes you dangerous in my INFORMED opinion.

To add the 80 pass time limit standard everyone seems to site is but a broad guideline subject to many factors and should NEVER be taken as a typical or guaranteed outcome. 80 hours is 3 and a third days. Us bingers know thats barely enough time for recovery, let alone to meet a standard of detection of 500 ng/ml
