This is not an attempt to humble brag. I am genuinely curious whether or not this alone is worthy of an update, as usually I see people sending updates for big things like publications and what not:
It appears that I will end this semester with a 4.0 (President's List); I am only waiting on one more grade to officially post. I was on the list a previous semester before applying, so it is included in my app for that semester. My overall GPA when I applied was a 3.8+...it will go up around 0.02 now, so it's not like it's a sudden drastic improvement.
This semester, I took 15 credits (all but 3 were upper-division). These credits included my senior honors thesis, which I am currently writing on a topic in biomedical ethics.
As far as other activities, I have not done anything new, but have just continued my previous extracurriculars that are already included on my app.
Is it worth sending an update about this 4.0 semester alone (to schools that accept updates, obviously)?
