This survey concerned the effect of sex and academic field on the well-documented relationship between birth order and achievement of 414 graduate students. No difference was found in the tendency for firstborn males ( n = 240) and females ( n = 174) to be high achievers. Academic field (science, n = 156; social studies, humanities, n = 208) also had no bearing on the relationship between birth order and achievement. The study did show a strong link between scholastic achievement and ordinal position which is consistent with past research
