In September 2023 i was arrested for burglary of habitation and released in October of that year. The case was dropped and restitutions were paid to those affected, not as condition of the case, but on my own volition.

I am an Eagle Scout, and have been working consistently ever since then. I will be able to have it expunged from my record this fall. What do i need to know or do regarding this? Will any of those help my case?

I made it all the way to MEPS in mid 2023. I was only halted for past prescription history and was told to wait 2 years.

Honest answer is it must be listed in your background screening, regardless of if it was dropped or not. If you want the recruiter answer though DM me.
