You won't ever know until you actually attempt to have it done. You can file a motion with the court requesting to have it expunged and you'd better have good, sound legal reasonaing why it should be granted.

Although I'm not a lawyer here's basically how sealing and expungment works: You can only expunge your record if the state attorney/district attorney/prosecutor, whatever they call them in your state, dropped the charges. In this example, the defendant would enter into a pre-trial diversion program and at the end of it, the charges would be dropped if they successfully completed the program. The other option is sealing your record. Sealed records are unavailable for viewing unless by subpoena from a judge. You don't have to report sealed records to employers.
