No, based on other postings, USCIS still adjudicates the following after the I-785 approval:

- awaits fingerprint/background check results from the FBI

She is in valid C9 (AOS app pending) status from the date of your receipt notice. She didn't have to be in school since then. However, by giving up the F1 requirements, she has the potential to be retroactively out of status if the AOS is denied.
I didn't know that. Well... even if I've known, my wife would've had taken full load classes anyway to get her degree. Now, she has an option to work or study part time / full time, whichever she prefers.
Thanks for your advice ML.
