So I just finished content review and I'm currently debating whether to dedicate all my time to doing passages or do a mix of FLs and passages. I started studying mid may and I am signed up for the 9/1 MCAT. I've already completed half of the TBR passages and all of EK1001 Bio. Do you guys think it's wise to start doing FLs now while doing some practice passages in the days in-between or to dedicate all my time to completing the practice passages/questions I have left in TBR and EK1001 before I move on to FLs?

Passages.

Don't touch FLs until you are around a month to go. You don't want to run out of them the week or two before your test. It might be a good idea for you to (assuming u finished content review), do the MCAT self assessment to get a good idea on where your weaknesses are. Basically large topical exams but did a good job of covering most of the topics on the MCAT.

Not sure if you are totally set on 9/1 for a reason, but you may also want to consider moving your MCAT up if you've been studying that long and are already running low on materials. You don't want to have an awkward gap between the MCAT and your last FL/practice passages.
 
I would start taking practice exams.

If you start practice tests now and find that you are doing super well on them then you might as well reschedule for an earlier exam.

You already finished content review and have done a ton of practice. Why drag out your prep if you might already be ready for the MCAT?
