What UC schools accept updates?

I'm thinking about sending updates in early November, but I can't seem to find much info on the UCs and how they feel about updates. I know UC Davis doesn't want them, but a lot of the others have the option to upload updates in the portal but no other information (pre/post-II, do they like them, etc.)

I'm waiting on a publication and hope to update on that/some of my ECs to show my progress and continued interest, but I'm honestly not sure how they'd feel about it or if it would make any difference.

Does anyone know how the different UCs feel about updates? Are updates even worth submitting pre-II?

Are updates even worth submitting pre-II?

Likely useless, especially when California is a net exporter of medical students. You might even get interest from one UC and not another for whatever reason even as a strong applicant.

One of SDN's collaborating organizations hosts frequent webinars with med admissions staff all across the UC system. You may want to check out any of the recordings or attend live sessions (moot statement: especially before applying).

I personally sent updates post-interview or in January if I've heard nothing yet
