I’m wondering this too

Per the wise @Goro, yes.

His guide to the app process (Goro's guide to the app process (2019 ed.)) recommends:
Prereqs completed before MCAT
MCAT completed before AMCAS
AMCAS completed before opening day
Because the secondaries can drown you

Yeah. Some schools are interviewing end of august and that’s one less spot for you as you wait for the score

Ahhh, but the OP is asking about the DO. cycle! In their case, September is not too late

? Do you mean to apply only to one reach school and not add any additional schools until after MCAT score is released?

Yes
