Rank these Ec's from most meaningful to least meaningful:

These aren't necessary my Ec's. These are just common ones. This would be a good reference to pre-meds. 1: Volunteering in a free clinic and having patient interaction 2. 2 published papers in a medical journal (2nd author) 3. EMT certification with hours 4. Shadowing 5. Long community Health screens-Blood pressure/sugar, cholesterol and consulting patients about their health based on those stats (Direct Patient interaction) 6. Laboratory assistant for a professor (published paper; not the first/second author; not a big contribution to the paper). 7. Multiple physician (5+) letters of recommendation from your work in the clinic, health screens and shadowing 8. Cleaning a part of the river as a part of environmental maintenance. 9. TA/tutor for an introductory class. 10. Devoted athlete at the university. Assume equal hours were committed to all activities. Rank them in order or most meaningful to medical schools to least meaningful. In other words, rank in order of best to worst. (if you don't feel like copying and pasting, just use the respective numbers and put them in order)
