Lateral from Top MM - too much to put GMAT score on resume?

I start in IB at a top MM in NYC in one month. I just received an email from a recruiter at an EB for applications for the FT class of 2019. I'm reworking my resume now to include my internship experience from this past summer, but I am also considering including my recent GMAT score. I come from a non-target undergrad and my SAT score is unimpressive to say the least. I took the GMAT after about a month of intensive studying this past year and I scored a 730, what most would consider an impressive score. It seems irrelevant for a resume coming right out of undergrad, but I think it would give me some credibility to people who, judging from my interview experience with other elite banks, doubt my intellectual capabilities before speaking to me. Does anyone have thoughts on this?

Doesn't seem too insane to include it. Replacing an unimpressive SAT with a better score on a higher level test won't ever hurt you especially coming from a non-target, it does no harm verify your intelligence.
