Hi mmav & welcome to the Forum
I am so sorry that you did not get through. I've had many calls already and it is difficult to know what to say to you. The most important thing is to stay positive. We can get almost anyone through this exam and some of the best people I know have needed several attempts.
I do not understand the comments that you were given. I also thought you needed an overall pass mark and that you could fail one or more individual essays. The same is true of the OSCE.
Can you contact them and ask for further clarification please? You should also try and get your MCQ and EMQ marks.
Let us know what they say as this is a very important thing to clarify.
Once again, sorry that you did not pass but remember to stay positive
