What happens next
Qualified candidates should watch for counselling schedules and seat-allotment notifications from the relevant counselling authorities. Candidates who did not qualify this time can review their performance and decide whether to prepare for the next attempt; one result does not define the range of paths available to you.
If regular timed practice is part of your next preparation cycle, the mock tests and sectionals on Pareeksha are a steady place to build it.
