I would agree except for the "come to a full stop" part. It is MUCH easier to keep the nose tires "gripping" the surface if you ease the tiller initially while moving 8-10 kt, then put it hard over once the airplane starts turning. Lead with power on the outside of the turn, and tap the inside brake to help keep the nosegear from sliding.
If there's a "D" available, I start on the straight side of the runway, and use the "D" for overrun.
