You didn't state what kind of agency your polygraph was with, but assuming that it was a law enforcement agency, it sounds like you most likely failed. It's standard practice for polygraph operators to interrogate in an attempt to get a confession when the charts are scored as "deception indicated." However, some polygraphers may press even those who pass for admissions, so one cannot be certain.
