Screwed up badly on a video essay for MBA, am I done?

I applied to Kellogg and messed up badly on its video essay. I misread other websites and thought that I had 3 tries for each answer. I didn't like the first two questions and gambled on the third. I started answering but it was pretty bad. I even stopped mid sentence thinking I had two more tries. I had no choice but to submit it. Did I flush my chance down the toilet? I thought about trying to get a waiver but it's probably too late now since I didn't ask immediately.
