Besides the practice exams, is 1 month enough to go through content review with EK, Kaplan books?

Depends.

How much time you study in a day?
Where you are starting from?
How well you can absorb info?

Every person is different and has to what is best for them.

I think I need six weeks of six hours a day for five days a week.

But that also includes practice passages to reinforce the content.

Do not forget that practice makes perfect!!

I would say if you have 3-4 hours a day on weekdays but 8+ hours on weekends. I am looking to start soon and get my review down. I know every person is different but I was wondering if that is adequate time to review or do I need more than that to go through all the books?

My test date is July 18th.

So far, I've been reviewing for 4ish hours (3-6) per day, 6 days per week (counting practice problems in the 1001 books). I'm taking a practice MCAT on the 7th day. Tomorrow is my first.

It feels like a vacation almost.

As you have already mentioned, without knowing anything about your abilities, no one here can tell you if a month is enough time. For some it is, for others it isn't. All I can tell you is that for me, I know I couldn't get all the content down in that amount of time. However, you may be different, you may not.

using EK i did:

Biology: 2 weeks, 6 hours a day
Orgo: 1 week, 6 hours a day
GChem: 1 week, 6 hours a day
Physics: 2 weeks, 10 hours a day

= 1.5 months total of content review. Then 1 week to review everything together. Then 4 weeks to do practice exams.
