Sorry to hear about your medical.
You have a 50% probability of guessing correctly on the first light. If you guess wrong, and get to take the test once more, then you again have a 50% chance of getting it right on the second test.

That results in a 75% chance of getting at least one of them right.

I took the test twice - on the second run (after I had failed once) they showed me all of the lights first.

The key is to go to a tower controlled field, call them up, and ask them to run through the lights a few times for you. Bring a friend who isn't a color tard (that's what my wife calls me).
