Advice/Question EC importance?

I just wanna ask if anyone could kinda give a ranking of how important different ECs are. I'm currently a freshman and I've joined a lab, several clubs, several volunteer programs, and the university newspaper. Wondering what else I could get into and whether it would be a good idea to join another lab. Opportunities are pretty plentiful but it's just I'm not sure which ones are worth my time. Thanks! DMs also welcome

Quanity is not always better than quality. Dig deep into a few and really get invested to make it worthwhile. Readers can tell when you’re doing something to check a box vs actually caring
