1. Did the meeting begin and end on time?

  2. Was all the equipment ready as needed?

  4. Was there a chance for every Scout to make some progress--
      Either by instruction, or testing towards First Class or beyond?

  6. Was the running of the meeting shared by the SPL and SM
      with other junior leaders?

  8. Did the SPL work through the Patrol Leaders most of the time?
      (e.g. do the patrols actually function as teams under the leadership
      and direction of their patrol leaders, or is this only a formality?)

10. Did any item last more than twenty minutes?

13. Did the instruction involve "learning by doing" as much as possible?
