European/UK MSc Finance with a 680 GMAT?

So the plan was to apply for top European and London MSc Finance programs in the second round however after averaging around 710-720 in practice tests, I scored a 680 in the GMAT (V38 Q44 IR8). Now the question is do I continue with my application in the second round or do I attempt to up my GMAT and apply in round 3?
