Each of the subtests labelled "fluency" in the WJ-III Achievement Tests requires some type of handwritten answer and they are also all timed - and they are the only subtests that are timed. That's why kids with fine motor dysgraphia will often have a pattern of relatively low subtest scores on the fluency subtests.

If it's any consolation, my ds' scores on the type of achievement tests kids take later on in school. Terra Nova etc - the tests that are used within many school districts for class placement in middle school and high school (where ds had accommodations for his dysgraphia) have consistently ranked where you'd expect based on his ability levels.
