Well the kid below me is kinda right, but not really at all.

The only humans to survive Ragnarok are Lif and Lifthrasir, by hiding (sleeping?) in Hodmimir's Forest.

As for the gods, Vili (or Hoenir as he was often known by) and many of the younger gods who took part in the war had survived. Vidar and Vali, the two sons of Odin, had survived Ragnarok, as did the two sons of Thor, Modi and Magni, who would wield Mjollnir, their father's mighty hammer. None of the goddesses were mentioned in various accounts of Ragnarok, but there is assumption that Frigg, Freyja and the other goddesses had survived. Balder, the dead god of beauty, and his blind brother, Hod, will be reborn in the New Age.

There are two accounts of Ragnarok;

Volupsa (The Seeress' Prophecy) and Snorri's account in The Prose Edda.

You forgot that balder will also inherit mjollnir, and that loki will be released for imprisonment after ragnarok
