A mistake is meant to be little and minor, a few marks should be deducted or substantial little amount should be ducted to correct the minor. But no, a mistake cost so much and could leave one helpless until another chance is awarded but this is unlikely to happen because of the saying that opportunity comes once in life time.
In the case of exam, If there is a silly mistake and one realizes after the exam and the mistake could damage his or her mark when the result comes out, this could leave the person frustrated and extremely sad especially if the person knew the answer very well.
A mistake can lead to tears, huge one and again especially if you knew it. However, every disappointment is a blessing in disguise. It was allowed to happen at an initial stage so that one would be careful in the future not to make the same mistake in an examination that tell where one stands in a higher level like in the university. This does not mean that one should be careless and ignorant. One should be careful to avoid such mistake that can damage the success of an individual.
Again that is why there is a word called correction, if there is no mistake there correction would not be necessary.
