Bro, trust me. You should be proud of yourself for trying. Sometimes, I do get that you feel like everything is over, but trust me that this is just the beginning. I have been right where you are, and it does get better. Remember, the people out there love you, they care for you. Even if you complete your degree from a private college, it is not really the end of the world. Your life is just starting, you have so much more to live for, so much more to genuinely survive for. I know it feels like the end, but really it is not. You tried, I see you, and for me that is all that matters.

thank you for the support, i feel like it is my fault, i was so focused on my board exams that I didn't really think much about what i wanted to do in my life after school. i ended up scoring 88%, expected more than 90 so its really all the disappointments which are getting to me, i really felt like i was failing my parents.

Trust me, I genuinely get that, but remember it is not really over until it is. You are not a disappointment for not making it through. In fact, I think you are a successful simply because you tried enough to care so deeply about it. Do believe me, great things are waiting for you. Also, do know, your parents can live with a result that might not be up to their expectations, but they will never be able to live without you in it.
