    EtG alcohol
    How long can a urine scan (etg I believe) detect alcohol? I have few drinks on Friday (5 maybe) and 2 on Saturday. I was tested on Tuesday. The exact hours are 89 from my last drink on Friday and 65 from my last drink on Saturday. I drank plenty of water during the day of the test. Will I pass?

    Great user name you chose... it says a lot about you.

    Anyway, you will probably pass.

    Why are you expected to take ETG tests? Is this a probation thing, or something else?

    How old are you? Based on your other posts, and this one, you sound very young. Too young to be drinking.

    And is this for probation, or something else?

    What happens if you fail the EtG?

    Like Odinn said, chances are you'll pass, but there's no guarantee, we can only guess. It really all depends on the individual. Your body, your metabolism, your age, your sex, your height, your weight, can all effect how quickly you absorb alcohol, how quickly it leaves your system.

    I hope it all works out. Let us know how it goes.

    Good luck.
