<p>Wrong. Eagle scout is NOT an academic achievement, therefore it does not belong under Honors. It is an EC and belongs under ECs where it says: "Positions held, honors won, or letters earned".</p>

<p>I earned my Girl Scout Gold Award (equivalent of Eagle) and I put it in that spot where I listed Girl Scouts as an Activity.</p>
