My wife did get a chance to shoot at the full size targets on Thursday and did fairly well (at least she felt better about herself)
We took our course Saturday and she almost out shot me with a 236 vs my 240. Needless to say, I'm damn proud of her for going through all the anxiety, etc. All you husbands and boyfriends need to talk your woman into getting a CHL.

Thanks for the replies. I think reading them has helped her a little and the fact that she knows the man who owns the range that we are taking the class may help too. He has told her that he will be right behind her for support and she will not fail (he's a LE Firearms Instructor and has pretty much seen any case of nerves possible) My fear was that she would drop out at the last minute, and I'm pretty sure that she wouldn't take the course without me there. Personally, I think she shoots well enough to pass with flying colors.
I did buy some targets and although she won't get a chance to shoot until the night before the class, I taped the target to the utility room door so she could at least get used to looking at it.

I am taking a CHL class next Saturday and am trying to get my wife to take it with me. Problem is she doesn't think she can shoot well enough to hit and also doesn't think she can make the shots within the required time allotted. I want to know what size the target that you shoot at in the class is. We rednecks have always shot at paper plates and I may have done her a disservice by having her practice shooting at the paper plates and not at something larger. Help.
