1990 SAT with terrible math score?

I’ve taken the SAT twice (and I’m a Senior with subject test in December so I’m not going to get another chance), and my score breakdown is:

750- Reading
530-Math
710-Writing

I’m applying to a bunch of liberal arts colleges (Brandeis, Depauw, William and Mary, ect) so I’m hoping the awful math score won’t be as important to them than say an engineering school.

How will they view it though, since there’s such a clear gap between that score and the other two? Esp because in the context of my transcript my math scores are consistently lower than all of my other scores (by an average of 7-10 pts)?
