I believe (and I strongly emphasize believe, because as you know, getting a look at an official document that spells out these rules is a no go) that they use verbal + math + GPA as the 80/80/80, not SAT I Score + SAT I Score or SAT II Score + GPA. Either way, though, you'd still need 50 points.
For instance. Let's say I'm at 590 Math, 590 Verbal and a GPA that translates to a 60. Under the math + verbal + GPA way, that would translate to a 178 (our current bar). Under the SAT I + SAT I + GPA way that would translate to 178 as well (1180/2/10 + 1180/2/10 + 60).
Now, if I raise my Math by 50 points, I'm now at:
640 / 10 + 590 / 10 + 60 = 183 (new bar)
Under the other calc, I'd be at:
(1230 / 2) / 10 + (1230 / 2) / 10 + 60 = 183 (new bar)
So I think you'd be looking at 50 points either way.
