Retake SAT I or SAT II?

So, I want to retake one of the two tests this October, and was wondering which I should retake.

On the SAT I, I got M: 620, CR: 660, W:670; so 1950 in total.
On the SAT IIs, I took two tests (Math 2 and Spanish), I got M: 580 and S: 800

In addition, I've also taken the TOEFL (since I'm an international student) and got 117 (or 113, I don't really remember lol) of 120

I think I should retake Math 2, this time putting my all into studying, but I don't know.. I was thinking that if I got a high mark on Math 2 (700+), then schools would see that I worked hard and improved my math regardless of what the SAT I Math score said.

If I do take Math 2, I could also take one or two other subject tests, so maybe Math 1 in case my Math 2 grade doesn't reach expectations?

What do you think?

Bump, anyone got any suggestions?

I have taken the AP Calc AB exam, however I believe I didn't do too good (hopefully a 3, but could even be a 2); I'm waiting for the results to be posted online

I don't know if that makes any difference or not really.

My hardest choice is probably UC Berkley or UVA. I've also got LMU, Rollins College, USC (this one is hard too), and American.

And Northwestern, which is pretty much an impossible dream of mine haha..
