Brief Profile:
I've been published once, and have had 3 summers of research experience (for my chemistry major, however...the reasearch wasn't necessarily medical in nature), i've shadowed an MD for 2 days, and have done quite a bit of non-medical community service.

Summary of Application Experience
It's a long road, but hang in there. And more than anything, apply early! I cannot stress how important that is. I had my 2 acceptances before Christmas this year, and it really took the pressure off.
