You won't be the first one, nor the last to have failed their CCNA on their first attempt. In fact, I too fail during my first attempt.
My advice is to study the areas you didn't do well on during your exam. And for the next few days...eat, sleep and breathe Cisco. You'll pass it this time around.

Yes, study your weak areas some more. Also, it is crucial that you nail your sim(s) on the exam: so work on configuring the different routing protocols and whatever you had for a sim on your exam (who knows, you may see it again). Hit it hard today and some tonight. Get yourself some rest and get in there tomorrw and give'em hell. You have a great advantage the 2nd time around because you now have a feel for the exam. You cam do it.
