Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.

There is no guarantee on the quality or reliability of the store drug tests. Moreover, each kit screens for a set of specific drugs and this may be different from what is actually being given by your employer.

Also, each employment agency has its own policy of testing, which means that you can be tested for any number of specified drugs. So, this is also variable. Considering your scenario, your chances of passing the drug test is very doubtful.

Wish you all the best.
