Should I take SAT Math 2 as a non-STEM major?

Hi guys,

I’m an international student who’s good at math but does not want to major in STEM but will probably major in social sciences instead. I’m thinking that if I take SAT math 2 and get a good score, it could improve my application? I heard that many other international applicants send SAT 2 scores, and maybe I should also send one to compete well? The only problem is I don’t know if colleges say, “oh, she is more interested in social sciences, so we should ignore this score” lol. I’m interested in math, too (I was the best math student in my class and a math tutor), but I just don’t want to major in it.

BTW, I need fin aid which makes everything harder. That’s why, I want to improve my application as much as possible. Do you think it’s a good idea, or just a waste of time?
