Most of the lifeboats were half full, because the first class passengers did not want the second and/or the third class passengers in with them. The first class passengers thought they were too good to be sitting next to second and/or third class passengers.
Approximately 750 passengers survived the sinking of the Titanic; and approximately 1450 passengers lost their lives.

There are some decent breakdowns of the people on each lifeboat. From Encyclopedia Titanica, for example, and the book "On a Sea of Glass", but bear in mind that many passengers were transferred in Fifth Officer Lowe's rescue mission (from lifeboat 14) and also that about thirty people from overturned lifeboat B were taken onto lifeboats 4 and 12.

∙ 12y ago67 per lifeboat, but when being seated some lifeboats had less than they could hold, one boat had only 12 people. One of the "collapsible" lifeboats was not deployed at all - it wouldn't open. As amazing as it seems to us today, up to and including the Titanic, ships were not required to have a lifeboat seat for every person on board. The recommendations of the investigation into the Titanic's sinking listed as #1 that all ships must have lifeboat seating for everyone on board from henceforth. That recommendation was adopted industry-wide immediately.
