Checking directly with the school is always the best policy. Also you can read their FAQ page if they have one, maybe there is a question related to your situation.

MBA admission video for Engineers on Vocaz site
In my hovering around the admission consultants sites, I ran into this video for engineers applying to top MBA. Does anyone find their “admission drivers� approach of any real value? it sounds way too artificial. That’s not how it works in real life, real life is not numbers and matrixes… an...

First of all, of course you can apply with 690, it's not that low. Look at the class profiles of the MBA programs, you are within the range. And you don't have to aim for the top-10.
Second, you can try retaking the test in order to improve to 700 or 710 so it'll look better.
Good luck!
