Task · part of 1. The bracket around the whole badge
1(b). Revisit that same source, once everything else is done
Required Often forgotten
After completing requirements 2 through 8, go back to your requirement 1(a) source and explain to your counselor what you have learned that helps you understand it better. This is the closing step of the badge, not part of the opening one.
Notes and warnings
Note. The badge ends here rather than at requirement 8. Nothing else on the plan waits on this, and this waits on everything else, so it is the natural last conversation with your counselor. Worth booking as its own meeting rather than tacking it onto the end of another one.
