There was a recent post about a scout who recieved his Eagle Medal 5 days before he turned 12, had all the MBs and 20 palms. If you do the math that's the max. 121-21=100/5 = 20 and it would take 5 years to do at 3 months between palms.

To reach 20 palms (6 Silver and a Gold), in addition to earning all 121 Merit Badges, a Scout must pass his Eagle Scout Board of Review no later than the day before his 13th Birthday, then pass each of the 20 subsequent Eagle Palm Boards of Review exactly 3 months after the preceding Board of Review, in order to complete all tenure requirements before his 18th birthday.

Good point Paul, timing is everything.

My son, who just turned 18 earned 20 palms. His 20th palm was earned 3 months after his 17th Birthday.
