amit,
680 is your best score and trust me it's a good one! Pay attention to your essays and overall application now. If I were you I wouldn't bother worrying about the GMAT anymore.
Best,
RTS

Jellies tried to capture the market by labeling its product as organic. So, it must have been assumed that organic products command a higher price.
