The student will have never soloed a nosewheel. His first step into one
will be with an FAA examiner, who has decided to let him take the test in
the nosewheel aircraft.

I find it hard to believe that a competent instructor would stick a student
into a nose dragger, with no dual given - before a solo, or a checkride. It
just doesn't seem logical.
