How can I do better? Is this upward trend good?

Hi all! I'm a post bacc student. Took some bcpm courses but got a business degree. Ugrad over all: 3.44 gpa and bcpm gpa before post-bacc: 2.7

My first semester of post-bacc I got a 2.7 gpa took two real classes while still finishing my undergrad (went to both schools at same time) but have pulled it up since then. Here are my grades thus far:

Fall 2014:
Gen Chem I B
Physics I. C
Physics I lab A
Gen chem I lab A-


Spring 2015
Gen Bio I-- retake from fesh. Yr u grad-- A
Gen Chem II A
Physics II B+
Physics II lab A-
Gen Chem II Lab A-


fall 2015
O Chem I A-
Algebra A-
Cell Bio A
Genetics B+
Biol internship A

I've managed to bring my sGPA up to a 3.33 and have 1.5 years to go. Is this a good upward trend? Do I still have a chance.


I also have a great research job and volunteer. I decided to take Algebra as I really need a refresher before calculus
 
By "real" I mean more than 1 credit and I am open to DO but am dreaming of MD
 
Maintain the A's, ace MCAT, and there are MD schools that will reward reinvention.
