There are several ranks in Boyscouts. First is Scout, which is very easily earned and requires that you just memorize the scout oath, law, slogan, motto, and a couple of other things. Next is Tenderfoot, which requires that you learn some outdoor skills. Second Class requires more outdoor skills as does First Class. Then the Star and Life ranks require that you do more leadership. And Eagle is the ultimate rank of scouting, which is only reached by some scouts. It requires much work and merit badges and it is also hard to attain because many scout run out of time since they can not do any rank advancement when they become 18 years of age.
In Boy Scouts, the highest achieveable rank is Eagle Scout. But even after Eagle Scout, you can continue on to obtain the Bronze, Silver, and Gold Palms.
