In the process of submitting an update with the following

1. Fall Grades
2. Publication
3. New Volunteering hours
4. GRE score??

Before the cycle started I took the GRE in case I didn't secure any acceptances and needed to apply to some SMPs.

Is it worth submitting my GRE Score to medical schools or will it not even be considered?

GRE Score: 330
Quant: 165
Verbal: 165
Analytical: 5
 
Nobody is going to care that you took an easier test than the MCAT, if anything I’d wonder why you took it since it’s not required and generally not considered a recreational activity.
 
You did well on the test (congrats!) but imo it’s largely irrelevant to medical admissions. The other points - grades, publication, and volunteering - are good additions.
