Reliability of Rapid Oral Test?

Reliability of Rapid Oral Test?

I'm sure I'm driving people on this forum crazy but I have one last question. It's been 3 weeks since my last negative test and nearly 8 weeks past possible exposure. I'm going to get a rapid oral test tomorrow. This will be the LAST test I get before the 3-month mark. At this point, how reliable are the results from this test compared to other tests? Also, what geneartion is it?

3rd generation...oral is just as reliable as other tests and a negative result at 8 weeks is unlikely to change when you follow up for a conclusive result.
