TIPS and ADVICE for the EAGLE SCOUT BOARD OF REVIEW

In this video I give my best advice on how to pass your Eagle Scout board of review. It may not be the advice you’d expect, but it’s the advise you need.

Awesome video! I became an Eagle Scout almost 9 years ago. I still remember my board of review. I remember trembling and crying a little. I just had mixed emotions. I was happy, but also very nervous. Once I got into the room with the committee, I took it upon myself to stand strong, and go with the flow. When I was asked to come back in the room with the committee, they gave a scout salute, and congratulated me on achieving the rank of Eagle. I was relieved, and very happy that I made a major accomplishment in my life.

[@JasonAbiuso]

That’s a great story, congratulations

Mine was this past Friday, one of the things that my Committee Chair told me after I did the Scout Oath and Law was “That was the hardest part of the Board of Review.” I don’t know how whoever sees this will feel, but you’ll be fine. Chances are with how much you involve yourself in the project throughout the cycle you shouldn’t be worried. As some final advice, you’ll join the many others as an Eagle Scout when your time comes!

[@JasonAbiuso]

Congratulations

Congratulations Jason! I am an Eagle Counselor here in Colorado. Excellent advice for Eagle Candidates. Well done to all of you who passed your boards. This is not the end. You get to be Eagle Scouts for the rest of your life. Enjoy!

Our board of review will start in a minute, before I've watched this. haha Thanks

[@chad2point035]

This really helps me but for anyone getting ready for their review literally know everything about your project for example I'm building stairs and they asked me what the code for the rise and run and I didn't know, but they said why I should know and they even asked the type of wood I was using for them so know your project like you've already done it twice.

Good luck tonight. If your trail to eagle was successful, it won’t be possible to fully leave it all behind. The lessons you learn from the eagle rank will stay with you

So I have a question about your World Conservation Award. Why is the border purple and the badge itself filled with green? Also, how come it's not on your right pocket? Is there something else you have there like the National Outdoor Awards?

[@JasonAbiuso]

Great question! So that is simply the world conservation award but it’s the old design before they started removing all the color from uniform patches to make them “camouflage”. And as for the placement, I have other temporary patches on my uniform but still wanted to display this award so I just put it above my world scouting Emblem
