Importance of ECs vs class load

I already posted this on high school life but I feel this is the more appropriate forum.

I already have to pick classes for next year (my sophomore year) and I have a dilemma. I want to take the following classes:

AP Euro History
AP Composition
AP Biology
Multi-variable Calculus
Honors Latin 2
Genetics (elective)
Theater

But if I do this, I won’t really have time for more than my two favorite EC’s: Robotics and Yearbook, so I will have to quit some EC’s. Personally, I would rather legit classes than ECs, but I heard ECs seem to have a huge impact on college acceptance.

What would you do?
