Simply due to the small size of many programs, I have to believe it is lower.
A T10 program often has ~10-12 in the entering class, the attrition rate might be similar to the econ department.
The rest of the T50 generally has 1-3 students entering, and unless you're a complete screwup, or the department completely struck out on their evaluation of your abilities..........there will be an effort made to mold you into a successful academic.
