So my school is on a quarter system, which means grades will not be finalized until mid-June.

Do you guys suggest I wait for spring quarter grades to come out and then submit mid-June or just submit my transcript (with winter quarter as my most recent) the first week of June?

The only pre-requisite I'm taking this quarter is the last of the physics series. I have completed all my general chemistry, organic chemistry, and general biology courses in previous quarters. I don't expect my GPA to change significantly after spring quarter--maybe increase 0.02 or so.

Also, if I do choose to submit without my spring quarter grades, when should I do the academic update? Should I update before Dec. 1st even if autumn quarter grades are not in yet?
 
I would just apply earlier
but from what I've heard, I don't think bath 1-6 makes a big difference

And for academic update I think it depends on how significantly your gpa will change pre-fall and post?
But not sure about that one
