Check Out the 2014 Merit Badge Rankings!

Bryan on Scouting released the newest merit badge rankings for 2014 and the number one spot might shock you. Not only did the most earned merit badge knock down a five-year reigning champ, but it also beat out the second place by nearly 19,000 badges. After the winner joined the Eagle-required list January 2014, the amount of Scouts earning the badge sky-rocketed to 99,908. With approximately 2.1 million badges earned in 2014, that’s not a bad ratio.

Here’s a hint: Second place went to First Aid, but who took the win?
