I have been on birth control for 15 years. My last period started on February 18th and ended on February 22 (on time). I forgot to start my new pack of pills on Sunday the 22nd. I did not remember until Friday, February 27th. I had s_x on the 24th and 25th of February. We did not use any form of birth control. When I remembered on the 27th I took 3 pills, I took 1 pill on Saturday the 28th and on Sunday I started a new pack of pills. What is the likelihood I am pregnant? How soon should I be able to take an at home test?

It's unlikely that you'd get pregnant. with a regular cycle you'd likely ovulate around March 4th, but you've been taking your pills now to prevent ovulation so you'll probably be ok. Obviously there will always be a chance, but missing those 5 pills is at least better than missing 5 pills from the second week of your pack.
You can take a home pregnancy test the day your period is due, if it doesn't show up.
