Clearly the weakness of my application is my MCAT. I struggled with devoting enough time to study since I always needed to work. I still applied and did not retake the MCAT since I thought other parts of my application (recommendations, activities) were fairly strong. I would consider the strongest parts of my AMCAS to be my personal statement and other essays.
