honestly,

a 660 is in the 80% range for all top schools. I think you should apply. Obviously GMAT isn't everything, and obviously any score in the 80% range (usually 640-710) is competitive with admissions.

Don't get bogged down by the over achievers on this board or any other board. They are the minority of test takers who get super high scores. Hence, the percentiles. 660 is probably at least the top 80% of all test takers. I think you should continue with your plans for the b-school you were interested in applying for.
