From AMCAS:

If you have a processed AMCAS application from a previous application year, you are considered a re-applicant to those previous medical schools. This is regardless of whether or not a secondary application was completed.

Also, most schools will definitely compare your old and new applications, side by side. You may have a bit of an uphill battle as a reapplicant, since you will have to prove why you merit an acceptance when you did not get one before.
