There is an agreement among researchers on how difficult it is to establish predictors, three have a moderate but inconclusive correlation degree: past performance, motivation and judgment. The hypothesis of this paper is that the productive lexical knowledge of a subject, which can be evaluated in terms of synonymy, is a factor that will determine academic performance. For this purpose, a quantitative comparison of the performance obtained by a group of students of Teaching of Language and Literature Teacher from the Language Professors of the IFDC, whom previously had been administered a test of synonyms, was performed. The results suggest that productive lexical knowledge, assessed in terms of synonymy, is a factor that predicts academic performance. El desempeño académico en el nivel superior, específicamente la posibilidad de predecirlo, es un tema de enorme profusión en términos tanto de teoría como de práctica. Hay un acuerdo entre quienes investigan de que, dentro de lo difícil que es establecer factores predictivos, tres tienen un grado moderado, pero no concluyente de correlación: el desempeño previo, la motivación y el juicio crítico. La hipótesis de este trabajo es que el conocimiento léxico productivo de un sujeto, que puede ser evaluado en términos de sinonimia, es un factor que determinará el rendimiento académico. Para dicho propósito se realizó una comparación cuantitativa en el desempeño obtenido por un grupo de estudiantes de la materia Didáctica de la Lengua y la Literatura del Profesorado en Letras del IFDC, a los cuales previamente se les había administrado un test de sinónimos. Los resultados sugieren que el conocimiento léxico productivo, evaluado en términos de sinonimia, es un factor que permite predecir el rendimiento académico.
