My first mains and the experience

This was my first mains overall third attempt, after checking prelims answer key I was on borderline but still completed gs 4 before result of prelims .

Essay :- wrote on "elephants fight" and "leader follows followers" wrote 12 pages on each . I covered all pestel aspects . Wrote just 4 practice essays .

Gs1:- knew every question but wrote tundra in fujiwahara by mistake . And wrote one 15 marker only 2 pages .

Gs 2 :- too analytical , but somehow completed . Some answers were good some so so

Gs3 :- thought examples were value addition but paper demanded examples , didn't know mission drishti but filled every page

Gs4:- was scoring 115+ in mocks,but paper was lengthy and analytical , started almost every question with a quote and finished with a quote .

Optional 1 (Socio) :- had prepared least , missed definition of situation used examples of gs 2 and thinkers wherever I remembered.

Optional 2 :- wtf was that too many if questions filled 3.5 pages in 20 marker somehow completed the paper .

Do you guys think I have any chance ?
