I have read several times on this forum and elsewhere that appx. 1/3 of SA appointees are Eagle Scouts. I have no idea if this is valid info, but if not, at least the rumor is consistent with respect to the percentage.
Only 24% of the academy class of 2014 were in Boy/Girl Scouts.
Only 12% of the academy class of 2014 were Eagle Scout/Gold award. (Half of those who were scouts)

All scouts, boys/girls; including eagle; at the entire air force academy is about 28%.
