Did you even read the original post?
I've been told that in lieu of related work experience (which I don't have), a high undergrad GPA (which I do have) and 75th percentile test scores should get me in. Therefore, I'm aiming for pretty specific numbers.

I took it in February-ish without studying and only got 150, 151, 4.5. It was pretty bad and I think it was exactly at the 50 percentile.
I got a 156, 155, and 4.5 this past spring though about 2-3 months later. I think it was like the low 70 or high 60 percentile (I don't remember my password/username ha). I studied a lot of SAT words, read a lot of boring articles with upper level words (to get used to boring test and understand the context in which SAT words were used), and did more practice tests out of Kaplan. I hate standardized tests.

I studied about ten hours and scored 1250 and a 5/6 on the essay (older format). I wish I studied for quant more because I wasn't happy with my 690 on that section.
