I think your theory is flawed. For one, you should take into consideration parental influence. A lot of lower income families are single parent or the parents didn’t go to college. There isn’t an example in the home for them to follow. Some lower income students don’t have access to things like private tutors that could help them get a higher GPA. Basically, poor doesn’t equal high achieving and neither does rich.
