• UNMARRIED WOMEN HAD MORE JOB OPPORTUNITIES OUTSIDE THE HOME THAN MARRIED WOMEN. - True
• EDUCATED WOMAN OFTEN BECAME DOCTORS OR LAWYERS. - False
• MANY EDUCATED WOMEN BECAME SCHOOLTEACHERS. - False

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1800, employment options for women were very limited and few of them had access to formal education and when they did, it was not a vocational education, preventing them from taking up law and medical positions, for example. These women could not even be teachers, as this required a high level of education, but the better educated women could become governesses or chaperones.

However, most women did not have this privilege and were subjected to jobs as a domestic servant, washerwoman, cook, rural worker, seamstress and other less paid jobs. In addition, these jobs were more difficult for married women, since their obligations were limited to taking care of the house, husband and children.
