Maybe you could try the Modern Middle East DSST.
That would most likely count for your "non-western" class.
(I wouldn't know if the other exam is or not)
CLEP- College Mathematics - 67
CLEP- Analyzing and Interpreting Literature - 67

I have been discussing the option of a History major* with my advisor lately. I was told that Vietnam War DSST does not count as non-western history, but does count as US History. I was also told that Modern Middle East DSST would apply to the non-western history requirement.

* Please note that I enrolled in time to qualify for the older set of history major requirements.
AS in 2010 and BS in 2013 at Excelsior College - Transcripts and Costs
MS Biostatistics in 2019 at Texas A&M University - Graduate School

Sharing Credit-by-Exam*
Resources Used - 20+ Exams Passed & General GRE
Practice Tests - Available for CLEP and DSST
