Oral HIV Test after 11 weeks, accurate or not?

I had unprotected sex March 23rd of this year.  Today, 6/12/13 I took an Oral HIV test, (the ones you buy from walgreens) and it came back negative.  How accurate is this really? Am I clear?

you can breathe a sigh of relief...your 11 week negative won't change in the next week.

An 11 week negative is extremely unlikely to change but 3 months is definitive. Wait one more week and test again to be definitive
