How good are the practice tests given in Kaplan and TPR books?

I'm writing the MCAT in 3 weeks. I want to do some more practice tests, besides the AAMC 3-10 and TPR & Kaplan's free online Diagnostics. I was wondering which ones would be the best among the following options:
(Freely available from the local library)
1) The 2/4 FLs from the Kaplan Premier Program Book (2008 ed.)
2) The 2 FLs from the Kaplan Practice Tests Book (2007 ed.)
3) The 2 FLs from The MCAT Workout Book by TPR
4) The 2/4 FLs from the Cracking The MCAT CBT (2nd ed.) by TPR
5) The 1 FL (EK 1H) from EK's 5-volume set
(Available for $40 from Craigslist)
6) 11 Kaplan FLs (I'm guessing these are the Kaplan FLs everyone talks about. The ads usually don't mention the year that the tests are from)

Also, I am only planning to use these paper full lenghts to get more practice for the PS & BS sections (along with EK101 for VR), so I am not worried about these tests being on paper while the real MCAT is CBT.

Any helpful advice would be really appreciated!
