You think I can review all of MCAT Bio in 15 hours, if I've read every chapter once before.

Even if you are able to, your retention will diminish over time. It's not a wise idea to try and cover it all in 15 hours straight.

I dont know, but im definitely in need of a refresher. My bio isnt going anywhere....

Even if it's a review, you are not going to retain all the information as much as you would like. You will remember the things you cover in the beginning and the end well, but not much for the middle.

Well if I'm doing this in the last 3 days before my MCAT, would that change this?

Honestly, at this point, you need to just do practice exams/passages and forget about content review. Content review is not what will make or break you, if you've already covered it. Since you've covered it already, the best thing you can do is practice because you will definitely remember questions you missed and why you got them wrong. Trust me.

Well my AAMC scores are starting to be 35+ so I figured my passage analysis is pretty decent. I've been through all of princeton and berkeley passages except for berkeley physio. I know I'm a little shady on some areas of Bio (but I'm hitting 12-15 on the aamc tests), so I thought it might be cool to give it a brief review in the last few days.

reviewing bio won't help much unless your just reviewing summaries. If you are hitting 12-15 you can't be weak, MCAT day will rely on the passage more than the memory.

I'm doing BR physiology passages, and they are really good. Logic to be used is really good, and I like how they integrate a lot of things together in their passages.

I'll probably review some summaries as Draper put it, and select some passages as I go along from berkeley.
