    1 shot of vodka, EtG tested about 40 hours later
    Hi everyone id just like some opinions if I'll pass. I drink lots and lots of coffee and diet soda I drank water after the shot, will I pass the 80 hour test? I got the test 39-40 hours after. I'm sure the cutoff is the lowest it can be (100) I'm so worried! Not worth the headache.

    A single shot at this range will most likely be clear,
    What do you stand to lose if you FAIL ?

    A single shot after 40hrs will probably not do you in, but you're going to be close.

    I passed my UA in the state of Texas. I was given a normal panel testing for drugs, as well as the ETG/ETS.
    I went to a bar that serves 20ounce beers & had two & the bartender gave me a free half. Then I had two White Russians, which truly are almost triples. So honestly you can call that 50ounces of beer(4-12ounces) & 5-6 shots inside two White Russians. This ends up being about 9-10drinks that were consumed from 5:30pm until 11:30 on Tuesday... I then had a random ETG on Friday morning at 9:30. So 57hours.

    I passed.
    I like to call it lucky, but I will tell you that I am 5'10'' 210lbs (not skinny) my metabolism is slow. Its all up to your body weight an how much fluid you consume.

    Fact is, everyone is different. ETG testing is not an exact science, your height, weight, age, metabolism, food intake, drink intake (other than alcohol) and more, can all effect the outcome of this test.

    I've seen people pass 19 hours after going on a severe drinking binge. I've seen other people fail 5 days after drinking one glass of wine.

    In other words, we can guess, but a guess won't help you. It is what it is, you'll either pass, or you'll fail, there's no way to predict what the outcome will be.


    Drink too much water after consuming alcohol and before an ETG, and you run a risk of failing for dilution. The people that perform these tests aren't idiots, don't assume that they are. The only way to pass an ETG and know for sure that you'll pass, is to refrain from drinking alcohol, otherwise it's just a matter of time before you're caught.

    Good luck.

    For every person who drank and passed there is one who did not drink and failed. It is SUPPOSED to be accurate for up to 80 hours, SUPPOSED to is the key word. By now Nicole likely knows that answer to her question.
