2 Search fund internship or 1 and nothing - hoping to pursue IB

I currently work with a decent search fund part time for my freshmen spring but managed to strike out on a few interview processes leading to me being essentially internship less for the summer. Would getting an additional internship at another search fund for the summer be valuable at all or would it just be diminishing returns where I could better spend the time preparing, and would the same apply for extending my current internship. Also if this is at all relevant I’m doing a part time venture scout freelance internship with a small west coast venture firm. Additionally how bad of a spot am I in for SA.

For some context I am non diversity and hope to pursue tech banking.

Thank you!
