Somehow mylot site was down here. I couldn't access mylot until now.
The exam didn't go as per my expectations. As it is an All India based exam, what matters is how others performed. Results are on March 19th.
Anyways I have started studying again for next year.
Let's see how things turn out.
What's going on in your life?

Yes, that type of exam is graded on a curve... You know I hope for the best for you. I'm sure you won't need to take it again next year but starting to study again until you know for sure is always a good idea. 
I finished drying, folding and putting away laundry this morning, I've washed the dishes and have sausage thawing in the kitchen for lunch later on.
I've been reading a new book on my phone when I'm not playing on myLot. (myLot was down for everyone from 3 am last night until 11 am this morning (my time zone). It's been up and running for about 4 hours.
What are you doing besides studying?

@Dreamerby I believe in you and wish you the best in life. I know you'll make the best decisions for yourself. Good luck!
Another book you might like is called "My Side of the Mountain". It's about a teenage boy who moves back to his ancestral lands by himself and lives with nature. It's a short story but very well written and based on a true story.
Edit to add: The author is Jean Craighead George.

Mylot site has been down at times on a daily basis for last few months. Yesterday it seems to be down for atleast 8 hours and well I could not mylot during my relaxation time. Not sure if it was the longest downtime for mylot yesterday , but surely it will be in that top list of downtimes.You need to evaluate your strengths and weakness and see what went right and wrong in this exam. You can then rectify and then proceed with things , where life takes you. For me , life has been as usual busy with work and with challenges. So trying to fix and go ahead and waiting for the breakthroughs. Take care!

I have gone through many exams, long working career, and now in the evening of my life.
Welcome whatever happens as when one door closes, many open.
I did not get what I wanted, or did not know what I wanted, but hard work and sincerity pays always.

If you are determined to clear it you can take the remakes that are allowed.
