Brief Profile:
I'm a bit of a non-traditional student with a strong background in the humanities (probably close to 100 hours). I got my calling towards medical school just as I was beginning law school and withdrew from UVA Law after a semester.
Worked several years as a lifeguard, an assistant swim coach, and in retail.
Worked for a year for a law firm in California. Worked for another law firm in London.
No research.
Have close to 100 hours in clinical shadowing/volunteering. Some community service, though mostly day or weekend projects with church. Volunteered in an addiction clinic.
Swam in college.
Studied abroad.
Like long walks on the beach.

Price + Location + Overall impression will decide where I end up (if I have the gift of being able to make a decision). Rank really doesn't amount to much in all of this, IMHO.
