Using data from 39,350 LSAT test takers in December 1991, it finds that substantial subscore differences were common, statistically significant differences affected about one-third of examinees, and rare significant discrepancies occurred for about one-tenth. Incidence showed limited variation by sex, ethnicity, LSAT familiarity, or law school characteristics, with higher prevalence linked to high total scores or older examinees, driven largely by weak

performance.The sample consisted of 39,350 examineeswho took the LSAT in December 1991.Subscore differences,often verysubstantial,were frequent.Statistically significant differences affectedabout a third of examinees,and significant and rare differences involved atenth of test takers.The incidence of these discrepancies did not vary withthe examinees'sex,ethnicity,familiarity with the LSAT,or the number orselectivity of the law schools to which examinees were applying.The  \nprevalence was greater for examinees who had high total scores on the LSAT orwere older,primarily reflecting these test takers’deviantly poor  \nperformance on the Analytical Reasoning subtest.Reliability was appreciablefor two of the three measures or observed differences,but minimal for themore important measures of significant or significant and rare differences.Subscore discrepancies appear to have no viable role to play in interpretingexaminee's LSAT performance.(Contains 3 figures,10 tables,and
