Which scores should I send? Important!!

March SAT: 630 CR, 700 Math, 690 Writing
June SAT: 660 CR, 660 Math, 730 Writing
October SAT (I did poorly on this one ): 590 CR, 720 Math, 650 Writing
Final Superscore: 2110
I know I am definitely sending in the June CR and Writing scores.
Which math score should I send in? I know that a 720 is obviously higher than a 700 BUT if colleges can see ALL the breakdown scores, I don't want them to see the 590 and 650. Will they see that my SAT score decreased a lot, and will that be frowned upon? Should I completely disregard the October SAT and send in the 700 math score instead, lowering my SAT Superscore by 20 points (2090)?
I also want to ask: If I don't check off the scores when I send it, can colleges still see it?

Please please help guys!! I am so confused as to what to do

It depends on which schools you are sending them to - some will only look at your highest score (as in they will only look at your highest math, cr, and w with disregard to everything else) and some will look at all of your scores.

If the majority of schools you're applying to only look at the highest score overall - then go ahead and send the 720.

So for the schools that see ALL the scores, should I only send the March SAT and June SAT?
