If my math is still as good as it was a few years ago A 45 would be considered a 60 (since they're both perfect scores) and a 30 would be a 40.

If you scope around the forums, you might find a chart that will calculate all the scores.

What is the new scale?

I highly encourage any aspiring doctors to read this article by the AAMC-

If you plan your college courses in advance, you will have an enormous advantage in preparing for this new test.

pretty sure those are basically them. I believe the required are one year bio, chem, orgo, english, and physics, along with math (but a lot require/like to see calc 1, maybe even 2 and stats). I think after 2015 though biochem becomes requires, psych and sociology are recommended because they're on the MCAT. Or at least that's what I THINK
