Solution

The most accurate statement about employed women is: "The amount of education a woman has had is one of the best predictors of whether she works outside the home." This is because education level is often directly correlated with employment opportunities. The other statements are either too specific to certain professions or are not accurate based on current statistics. For example, the profession of medicine has not always welcomed women, and medicine is not the only high-prestige profession where the percentage of women has increased significantly in recent years. Also, the percentage of first-year medical students who are female is currently higher than 20%.
