IMO people who are truly saved believe in the doctrines of grace when they are saved, they may not know all the theological lingo but they know they are sinners, do not deserve mercy and that God has offered them salvation of His own will, it wasn't their idea. I frequently hear Arminians describe their experience of being pursued by God. It's later, sometimes not very much later, they get mixed up.
