There were different criteria among the officers while loading passengers onto boats.
Murdochs policy was 'women and children first'. Lightoller's was 'women and children ONLY' - until only the collapsibles were left and all the women seemed to be gone. Which is why him, Bride, and Gracie were on overturned boat B
The crew of the Titanic allowed first class women and children first, then continued down the the classes.
They say women and children went first and then first class people which was unfair because first class people were the most rich ones, so the poorer people had to wait last or find so other way of getting of the ship.
The woman and children in first class i believe.
Women and children. None from the lower levels of the ship only upper class passengers.
First class was loaded first then second class
First class
second class
third class

First class passengers were the first allowed in the lifeboats with most lifeboats admitting women and children first then filling the remaining seats with any other first class men.
Rich women and children were allowed on the lifeboats first then rich men and few poor people of any age or gender were taken onto lifeboats.
The lifeboats varied but there was a direct correlation between time and utilization - in other words, the first ones went out with many unused seats and the last ones were overflowing.
The Captain didn't make that decision. The decisions regarding filling the lifeboats were taken by First Officer Murdoch and Second Officer Liteholler.

The upper class passengers were allowed to enter the lifeboats first and the titanic didn't carry enough lifeboats for all the passengers because it was thought to be "unsinkable".
The first boat was launched from Titanic at 12:40 AM.
panic
probably women and children as they were called to the lifeboats first
Nope I don't think so
