I failed my ASEL when on the final landing (Normal Landing Maneuver)I landed 10 ft short of the aimpoint on a 13,500 ft long runway. It was a mis-communication between me and the examiner when he said within 200ft of the aimpoint and actually meant 200ft at or beyond the aimpoint.

So why do I say this? Because I would hate to think that ASA would not even look at my app for one failed checkride. Some examiners view checkride failure as "everyone should have one" and don't think it has any impact on our careers.

Sorry for the threadjack.
