Taking Calculus 2 as a non-STEM major

Hello,

So I’m started college this fall. I took AB Calculus during my senior year of high school, and got a 5 (yay!) which satisfies the math requirement for my college (Calculus 1). However, my parents are pressuring me to still take Calculus 2, even though I really don’t want to take any more math. I’ve always been pretty decent when it comes to math, but I’d like to major in one of the humanities and go to law school, which I’m pretty sure doesn’t have any connections to a calculus course.

What should I do? No more math? More Calc? Or should I take course in something like statistics? Is just satisfying the math requirement for my college good enough?
