This study examines how social and economic factors affect SMA 1 Barunawati Jakarta's graduation competitiveness. Academic competition among students is a significant measure of educational quality in an increasingly competitive globalised era. Family support, peer interaction, and learning culture, as well as economic factors such as family income and educational resources, are believed to influence pupils' academic performance. A quantitative survey of 226 SMA 1 Barunawati pupils was used. Questionnaires measured social environment, economic conditions, and academic competitiveness. Relationships between variables were identified using linear regression. The study found that social and economic factors boost student competitiveness. Academic performance and graduation rates are greater in supportive social and economic situations. These findings emphasise the relevance of family and community in supporting students' intellectual development. This study is expected to help schools, parents, and policymakers develop initiatives to enhance student competitiveness and address the challenges faced by underprivileged pupils. It is intended that all pupils can attain their educational potential. This study examines how social and economic factors affect SMA 1 Barunawati Jakarta's graduation competitiveness. Qualitative research uses a 1-5 Likert scale. A sample of 226 students from 520 was analysed using simple and multiple regression tests. Social and economic factors significantly affect student competitiveness in completing their education, according to a study. These findings should inform Indonesian education strategies.
