Path to Eagle Scout is a guide for Scouts and Scout leaders to understand and track progress on the requirements for the ranks that lead to Eagle Scout. The app allows a Scout to keep track of his rank advancement, Merit Badges, and the progress of other activities. An up-to-date list of Merit Badges is available within the app, allowing quick access to Merit Badge Requirements. Scouts can filter the badges by active status, discontinued status, Eagle Scout required, or completed. Scouts can keep track of Merit Badge information through a checklist and write Merit Badge specific notes. Checklists for each rank, special awards, camping nights, and Merit Badges are available for the scouts to log their progress. Each rank includes a corresponding notepad, which scouts can use to keep track of who signed the Scout off for the requirement, or where the requirement was completed; a quiz, which includes questions to prepare for his Board of Review; checklists for the Scout to mark off each of the rank requirements as they are achieved.
