I consumed 3 beers between the hours of 7-9 p.m. on a Saturday night and had to EtG test at 9 a.m. Tuesday morning. I am a 20 year old female, weigh approximatly 130lb, fairly active. I consumed A lot of water (pretty much all I drank until my test on Tuesday morning at 9 a.m.) was at the beach and sweating a lot the rest of the weekend. Do you think I will have passed? Mind you I do not know if it was a etg-100 or etg-500, etc.

Thank you!

EtG created from 3 beers should be cleared within about 36 hours (range 27-44). That is based on 100 ng cutoff.

Out of curiosity, why is it claimed 80hrs?

The claim can be traced to early research by Dr. F. Wurst around 1997 and long since proven inaccurate. Subsequently the commercial drug testing industry in US (2003) began citing Wurst and perpetuated a myth. A very profitable but harmful myth.

In fairness there have been a few cases of detection of EtG up to about 90 hours in highly intoxicated chronic alcoholics. In order to reach the 80 hour mark very heavy intoxication must be present and even then the detection window is usually far shorter.
