    Was you tested LAST week because its only Monday. They should have the results back by now if you was.

    How much Sangria did you drink? It is impossible to even give an opinion without that knowledge.

    48 hours is not a very long time since the last drink for ETG testing, but I agree with AntC... quantity (and overall time frame) are very helpful in determining the likely outcome. I would not place very high odds of passing, unless you had literally a drink or two...

    Can I Pass my ETG alcohol test with 55 hours?
    Hi, Saturday night over a time span of 8pm to 2am, I had several vodka drinks. I would say about 9-10. I just took an EtG test today Tuesday at 130pm. I've calculated that I have about 50-55 hours, Do I have a good chance of passing?

    I had probably 2 glasses of sangria that Sunday. I just met with my counselor and nothing was brought up? This was over a week ago, so I'm assuming I passed that one.

    If it was last week, and you had just met with them and nothing was said, it's a safe assumption to make that you passed.

    You asked something similar days ago....for a different situation. If you are not supposed to be drinking, you will get caught if you keep this up. It seems as if there is a problem here and it's unfortunate. I see that passing last week gave you the courage to go again this week...keep it up and you will get caught.

    With all that said, that was a lot of alcohol. If it really is 55 hours, you might get lucky and pass. I have seen stranger things happen.

    I've been in this outpatient center for a year and a half and they won't complete me. I'm not on probation.. but I would like a certificate of completion. Haven't failed a test yet although I know I've cut it close. But this summer , I've been on several vacations- and had to take random EtG tests.

    If you want this certification of completion you stay sober as directed. You actually haven't completed anything as you keep drinking.

    At 55 hours, with 8-10 drinks, you are cutting it close. Everyone's metabolism is different with ETG. It certainly is possible that you will pass.

    And its always very possible you will fail.

    If you are still drinking... you clearly aren't ready to complete the program
