Can anyone help me so that the table fits in LaTeX? It almost fits, but half of the last column part goes outiside the paper. I have already tried to add /small and /footnotesize, but it doesnt work.

Please have a look at http://betterposters.blogspot.de/2012/08/the-data-prison.html how to design nice looking tables

You could use a tabularx and let latex adjust the size:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{proof}
\usepackage[left=0.60in, right=0.60in, top=0.65in, bottom=0.65in, footskip=0.1in]{geometry}


\usepackage{tabularx}

\end{tabularx}
\end{table}
\end{tiny}

Just complementing the answer, if the table is very large, it's possible to rotate the sheet by using pdflscape:

\usepackage{pdflscape}
...

\begin{landscape}
(Your Table)
\end{landscape}

My solution:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{proof}
\usepackage[left=0.60in, right=0.60in, top=0.65in, bottom=0.65in, footskip=0.1in]{geometry}

I have only edited the alignment of the 8th and 9th column (p{20mm}|p{22mm}) and added three \par in the first cell in such columns (out of dollar signs, you're typing text in the cells).

Anyway the solution with tabularx by @samcarter is very good.
