It’s not good enough to get into any top school, and top 2% is simply not good enough when it’s effectively the same as the top 20%.

It's enough to get into any state school, and many people in places like MIT/Harvard/other-here have scores around yours.

It's definitely in range [1]. You could also consider retaking it, or taking the GMAT, LSAT, or GRE.
