Are extra curriculum activities worth taking or should I focus on my A-levels?

Hi, I was going to take some extra curriculum activities at my college , one was EPQ. This is an essay based independent assessment on a subject of our choice which could be worth around 70 UCAS points. Is this worth taking, or should i focus on my a levels which are english, history and sociology?

It isn't hard to do well in A-levels while engaging in other pursuits. There is a balance and only you will be able to tell what is manageable.
