My father family went through lot of struggle, because of partition, later Nationalization of their assets which caused major financial struggle, uprooted couple of times but all his brothers(5) and Sisters(2) were top scorer and all had atleast one Master degree. All have professional degree with honors and doctorate. My father had three PG and doctrate. Same is with children and cousins.
Environment had little or no effect. Even if I check his cousins etc, no drop out, all are atleast Post graduate.
