Will the initial EMIT screen show which drugs come up positive? Or will it just show up 'positive' if any drugs are present?

I'm asking because I had a random drug test yesterday and today. I'm prescribed adderall and currently polytussin (hydrocodone syrup for cough). I smoked a bowl about 2 weeks ago, took a home test yesterday & passed it. But I'm afraid if the screen shows up as 'non-negative' and they send it to GC/MS then that will show THC. I know my levels were low enough to pass the initial, but I don't think it's under the GC/MS cutoff.

There was no pre-test form to fill out showing my current prescriptions, but my teacher has copies of them. All I know about the test is that it tests 6 drugs ('the big 6' according to the lab tech that came to the school).

If you passed the home test you should be good for the GC/MS. The 50ng emit and the 15ng GC/MS cutoff levels are the same. You will probably get a call from an MRO about your prescriptions.
