Just curious, that was my experience on my first (and only) day as a student at a DE.
yes indeed.. I drove 3 or 4 laps... then the student drove the rest of the time... pretty standard stuff.... He wasn't new driving on a track, just new to that track, new to the car, and didn't feel confident right away but picked up the line very quickly and could have almost been signed off to drive on his own but it was only 1 day....

those awd cars are interesting at the track... i drove a friend's STi at Moroso, on the one hand it was boring because it was so easy, on the other hand it was pretty quick despite its weight. They're totally foolproof though, you have to be a real moron to get into trouble with one of those!! Good cars for beginners who want to concentrate on learning a track. (STi was not as heavy as the allroad though, must have felt like a boat!)
