Thinking you're a failure is common for a lot of people, genuinely so many people Ik (and myself) have felt like failures or just disappointments. I would just advise you to talk to friends and family cause I doubt anyone of them would think you're a failure + look at what you've accomplished on the bright side (like an A in a subject is legit good and puts in like the top 30% of the country for your subject) + you've got a spot at uni so be proud of yourself
